Depends where short circuit is. Is circuit protected by a fuse? If so replace fuse with a test lamp-if short is present it will illuminate. Trace circuit disconnecting one item at a time (bulbs, socket, etc.) until test light goes off. That will give you an idea what to repair

When do you need a capacitor for your sound system?

The simplest test to do is turn on your system at night, and if your headlights dim with every beat, (given a fully functioning electrical system) you may need a capacitor. Check with a local electronics expert for some advice. Also, capacitors give your amp the power it needs when it really needs, instead of putting heavy work on your cars electrical system.

What works like a fuse to keep the electrical system from becoming overloaded?

Your electrical system is run in a parallel series. This means the majority of your electrical system and components are getting ~11-12 volts at any given time. It doesn't overload because of the way a parallel series system works (the voltages don't "add up" to become a lot of volts) - which is a whole other topic. Google it.
