yes, just like any electrical repair.. when the wire with power to it(the positive) hits ground it will blow a fuse it is is not burning energy by doing something (like lighting a light or moving a motor)... i would pull out the switch and disconnect the wiring harness do any repairs to the wiring harness there and if you have wires still sticking in the switch find out where they came from and correct them.. if you dont know how to do this go to an automobile electrical repair place and they will be able to do this for you alot cheaper than the dealer.....
