It's a long shot, since I don't know the year of your 240, but on my '80 245DL, the rear tailgate wiper motor is on the same fuse as the radio/lighter/etc... Well, the hot wire from the wiper motor came loose, and touched the frame of the car, resulting in a blown fuse every time I turned the key.

That took a bit of figuring out...

Just take a look behind your center council and see how the wiring is. Something must be shorting somewhere.
