Hi david

Recommend you start checking the light units for a shorts.

Do this by un-plunging each light unit separately to see if it stops blowing the fuse.

Both front and all 4 rear (if you still have the bumper lights.

Have you removed the rear units on the chassis as I rein corrosion could be the fault here.

If not that you need to remove all sockets from all lamps and see if it still blows, if it dose you need a wiring diagram to see where and what is shooting out.

Hope this helps

Cheers
