When you say to remove bulbs to check sockets, do you mean all of these bulbs (fog, license, and tail lights), or just the ones for tail lights?
Your Lights Have A Direct Short Some Where Causing Fuse To Blow - Common Problem With Older Vehicles Especially If They Have Been Used For Towing / Plowing .
Check Light Sockets and Bulbs , Look For Frayed Or Melted Wiring
SOURCE: Dash light, license plate light & tail lights don't work
Checked the wiring connecting the light,this some common problem its looks good but already cut or break ,,checked the continuity of by using a multistester or whatever that can checked the continiuty..
SOURCE: Lost lights
hi as you have checked all fuses for these light ok? and other lights are all working may i suggest you check the relay for side/tail lights which also includes licence plate light first it sound like the relay has failed if you look under fuse/relay cover you may find map indicating location? i would try this first b4 switch hope this helps?
SOURCE: license's plate light stopped working even with new bulb.
It wouldn't be a fuse if that's the only light that's not working, I believe all of the parking lights are on the same fuse. It's most likely a bad ground or corrosion inside the socket where the bulb makes the electrical connection. So check the socket to make sure it has no corrosion, if it does, clean it up and apply some dielectric grease (available at any parts store) to prevent future corrosion, and check for a loose or broken ground wire.

there is a short somewhere.put a test light in place of the fuse.
the light will glow bright.when the short is removed,the light will go dim
