"Good electrical knowledge"? That's an understatement, Pete.
I don't have specific knowledge of this car, but it seems fairly safe to say that there must be a stuck relay somewhere in line with the lamp. If there's a box in the engine bay about 20 cm x 30 cm, pop off the top and start tapping around. Look for black or gray plastic boxes about 2 to 2.5 cm square. I've seen stuck relays in TVs respond well to this type of troubleshooting. What troubles me, however, is that the fuse should be between the relay's contacts and the lamp. Or in line with the power to the relay. I'm curious as to what you find.
