welcome to the world of FIAT ELECTRICALS best bet is to dismantle the console and have a looksie maybe a crossed wire or something stupi maybe just the old common as muck grounding point

Yes you have a wire shorting somewhere, this sounds similar to what happened with my Puma, my fuse for all of my lights kept popping until eventually the wire with the short gave up the ghost and melted, i just replaced the fuse and it has been fine ever since, luckily my melted wire was easy to find too.

Make sure there are no hidden fuses in your car, the fuse box in my Puma had a piggback unit with 5 fuses on the back of the main fuse box

*Edit* Also get your hands on a haynes manual and find the eathing points as it could have something to do with this, typically they are bolted onto a sill or part of the chassis
