Angry Fuse blowing

I am having electrical problems with my 85 cutlass. Whenever I turn on the light switch the tail light fuse pops. I tried removing every light in the car and it still popped. I even switched the light switch with the one from my other cutlass (no luck). I'm sure it's a ground but I suck at electrical. Any help would be appreciated.

Unplug the harness from the fuse box for the rear & start process of elimination ps did you just install a new stereo???? The light wire will show up as a ground until the lights are turned on I have seen this too often come into my shop
