Electrical Woes Continue

I thought my electrical problems were over, but Inwas was wrong. I noticed all the lights flickering when I closed the entry door hard. The relay box is contained in the cabinet above the sink. I slammed those cabinet doors hard to see if this was the source, BAM fuse blew. I replaced fuse, and tried to turn the lights on above the sink, BAM fuse blew.

This is a two gang switch which controls two lights above sink and the additional switch controls the rest of the lights inside the main area of the trailer. Not sure where to start, other than pull the panel and see if something is grounding out. If that is not the case and it is the switch, can I order a new one somewhere online? Hopefully it is not the wiring somewhere within the two lights above the sink.

I refuse to pay dealer ridiculous amounts of money so I need to find the source!

I would continue the trouble shooting. I wouldn't spend time wondering about replacing anything until I found out the cause. It sounds like a loose wire to me.
Keep looking and learning what it isn't.

I would cut the power and pull both of those switches and make sure all the wires are tight and not touching the other switch causing the fuse to blow. If that doesn't help I would replace the switches

You can find them at local RV dealer or Amazon, I usually pick up small items at the local dealer so I can just get the job done.
