Question no taillights or dash lights

The fuse for the dash lights and tail lights blew today for some reason,I know this means a short,has anyone had this problem too or where would be the first place to look?

Fuse number 8, I assume.
Look for a short where the wires go to the back make sure they aren't pinched between the frame and cab. Check all exterior light areas..
Check also trailer connections plate lights...good luck
