After you pull a fuse, connect a test lamp across the fuse holder, if it lights at full brilliance, this will indicate a fault to ground on that circuit. A blown fuse link can assist in this regard. A volt meter may be used, but only with caution, as it will draw very little current and this will be available to ground via any normally connected load.

Unfortunately there will be several branches to each fused circuit, which will have to be checked separately, if fault is detected in this way. This is where the hassle will start.
