Found shorted circuit board in the message center mounted above the windshield rear view mirror. This assembly is part of the map lights & sunglasses holder. Chrysler dealer informed me the part is no longer available (discontinued). Found good used one at auto salvage. If unable to locate part just unplug message center circuit board. This will remove the short circuit & fuse will no longer burn out.
