Default Door Locks blow fuse every time

So a long while back I made a rookie mistake and left the key in the on position while getting a jump after my battery had died. I know, dumb. What can I say, I was distracted. Anyway, it blew a relay which I subsequently replaced, but since then, the door locks will blow a fuse and not work. So it goes: 1) replace door lock circuit fuse, 2) press door lock control button, 3) fuse blows, 4) repeat.

I don't have a lot of working knowledge of the electrical system, and am ready to do some serious work to get it working again. Just seeing if anyone has any suggestions on where to start looking.

2000 Subaru Impreza Outback Sport. 2.2L

Thanks!

Does it do the same for every door lock control button? Or just a particular one?

The door lock buttons are generally servo controls, you MAY have burnt one out...or sadly...all of them.
