RE: blowing accessory fuse
Nothing like a tripping breaker/blown fuse to create some headaches. Not being familiar with the newer bikes, are you talking fuse (which is a one-time device that "blows") or a breaker (which can reset)? Anyway, aside from something obvious such as pinched or worn insulation, it is a matter of checking the components on that particular circuit, and isolating the fault. Can be tedious, but if you have a service manual and a simple ohm meter, it isn't overly difficult.

Sorry, I don't know much about your bike and how it is arranged, but I would pull the seat and start chasing wire circuits. Look up under the fender also. Sometimes, the harness will come loose and rub against the tire. Look for any place that a wire could have worn and grounded itself.
