More likely an open, the opposite of a short. A short is a power wire contacting ground ... zap ... blown fuse. Replace fuse without fixing short ... zap again ... another blown fuse.

An open is a break in the circuit, things just stop working. Could be a bad ground, corroded fuse, bad connector, broken wire, broken whatever. All are opens, not shorts.

Enjoy,
