electrical short in sled deck

[SidewaysInto3rd]

Put on the sled deck and went to hook up the lights on it, kept blowing the fuse...

So I put my ohm meter to the + and - on the deck and sure enough, there is a short some where...

Any tips on how to find out where the short is ? I'm not one for chasing electrical gremlins !!!!

Deck has the rear lights as well as side markers... some of the bulbs are burnt and one of the side markers broke off and is dangling but the wire is in good shape (i guess it lost a battle to a tree branch, or a parking meter or street sign .. who knows)

Main thing i would do is look for the wear points, every time it goes around a corner or bends. Check your ground.
