W124 #3 Fuse blows repeatedly

Hi all,
The #3 fuse that controls rt taillight, dash & console lights, lamp wipers, blew while I was driving. I replaced it and when I turned on the lights, the right tail lit up for 1 second then blew the fuse.

I've searched 19 pages of "fuse" problems and tried these suggestions:
  • clean fuse holder contacts
  • use cooper fuses
  • check for broken wiring.

I've run through about 8 fuses so far.

I noticed that on the left tail light ALL the wires are bundled together. On the right (where the problem is) there is a brown wire that runs separately alongside the main bundle. I guessed this might have been from some previous work but I can't find anything wrong with it.

Any ideas-- or are there any posts I may have missed?
