1996 STS

I just purchased a 1996 STS form a dealership and now I know why I got it so cheap! I love the vehicle and it works great except for 1 problem??????????????? I keep blowing the radio fuse....I can go through 10 a day easily. It seems that it works fine until I get into the car and sit on the seat or hit the steering wheel with my knee, maybe even when I close the door. The fuse controls the power windows, radio and the settings for the seats. Could anyone please help me troubleshoot this problem? THX

You say it is the radio but how do you know. If you are positive disconnect it and remove it and have it serviced or better still just get another one from a salvage company. In fact here is one right now on eBay:

I've un plugged the stereo and plugged in the fuse and it blows....i've unplugged the seat components and plugged in the fuse and it blows.....it runs the power windows also but i can't do all that cause it's a huge mess! Just wondering if anyone has heard of this happening before i've tried to be as patient with it as possible but i can't get it to work!!!!! Thx

Any further help please????????????????? Thx
