L-series Taillight/Dome light fuse keeps blowing - why

The fuse that looks after the taillights and the interior lights keeps blowing. The fuse seat sparks up every time I try to put a fresh fuse in.

What do you think is the culprit for this?

Thanks

A short in the wiring would be my first guess.

Remove the interior lights, the park light and tail light assemblies and disconnect them. If it still blows, the problems is the wiring. Id look at your parkers on the front and the associated, could be a nicked wire
