That sounds more like a very slight case of overload to me. If you had an 
honest-to-goodness short that fuse would blow immediately. That it is
slow to do so makes it sound like too much of a load on the circuit. Especially
since it tends to blow when you're using the brakes. Have you replaced / 
added any lights lately?
