check your wiring where it connects to or goes through the body, it might be the wire has been moving about against an edge of the metal body and is shorting or check for water on connections ?

check the terminals as well, i had a car that someone put higher watage bulbs in and had eventualy it burnt the plastic back so it earthed out and kept blowing the fuse

best bet is chafeing on body work and earthing out that is causeing the fuse to blow

let us know what you find

Stick a new fuse in and get somebody else to turn it on, watch all the lights and see if they all come on properly, or if one sparkles and flashes before the fuse blows, at this time of year probably water in one of the rear ones on the bumper.
