I lived this same problem a little over a month ago. I think my problem was either a short somewhere around the back of my head unit or my cup holder. I think one or the other may have been pinching a wire. I know it doesn't give much info but that were the only two areas that looked suspect.

I tried a new headlight switch, disconnecting my trailer brake, disconnecting 7 pin plug at the back of the truck. I did have a blown fuse and it would pop every time I turned the headlight switch.

I guess my advice would be to start the search behind the dash.
