Default Saph 2wd fuse 22 problem- UPDATED- alternator problem?

I took my 2wd out last night for a run as the battery was low, so i thought id give her a run to help put some charge back in the battery when all of a sudden the battery light came on, and the rev counter, temp, and fuel gague died, so i drove it home slowly.
I have inspected it this morning, and the 10A fuse (bottom right in the pic) has blown. Ive looked in the owners manual, which states fuse number 22 is for the instruments and controls.
I replaced the fuse, switched on the ignition and its blow again, the battery light did come on tho?

does anyone have a clue what could be causing it? or if its a common problem?
