ok so i was driving the other night and a fuse blew and which was my gauge and tail lights fuse so i replaced and it blew so i figured it was a short ok so i decided i would rip half of my dash out to find out where it was and i couldn't find it and i even checked the tail light wires and i couldn't find anything in so if you know anything please let me know.

 

is it the right size fuse???

 

What year car? What fuse is going? Tail lights fuse does not run gauges. Gauges should have their own fuse.
