Answer
John,
 I hate to be so vague, but there really isn't anything I can help you with.  This is one of those problems that will have to be sorted out by you.  Most likely it's a wire grounding out on something.  The reverse light wiring that comes from the transmission does this some times, so check it out.  Other than that, it could be radio wiring, or numerous other spots.

 Good luck,
 Josh
