There is an electical short somewhere in the system, it could be a power wire shorted to ground, or one of the components has failed and caused or created a short. (burnt wires in circuit or in part)
Are the bulbs out of the sockets and the fuse blows? Take bulbs out and check again Place one back at a time if fuse was OK with bulbs out to locate bad bulb. Otherwise....... Do this........if still needed with bulbs out and fuse blowing. Put a circuit breaker in to replace the fuse of the same amperage. It will trip off then back on. Use a standard cheap magnetic compass........place along lighting wiring........the wire with current will cause the needle to jump as circuit breaker trips on and off. Follow path of current to problem.....the compass will stop moving once past the shorted /grounded wire/connection.
if its blowing fuses, you have a short(power being touched to ground) Electrical can be hard to trace. Find you a wiring schematic for you vehical and trace each wire, look for loose connections and possible wires melted to each other. Hope this is a help.
