Default Electronic Problem HeLP!!!

Alright so here's the scenario. My car's tailights have stop working, I know its the fuse, but everytime I put in another one the SOB keeps blowin out on me. Now last time I had this problem I found out is was because some of my Radio wires were touching in the back. But this time my radio was professionally installed, so I checked it again and no wires were touching, so I'm stumped as to why my freakin fuse keeps bustin everytime I turn the Lights on. Any diagnosis? ....Oh yeah this is for a 1995 Integra LS

you have a direct short to ground. some cars use the same fuse to protect instrument lighting as well as running lights and since you have lights all around the car and instruments-it could be anywhere?

I would check the fuse block and find out what circuits are on the fuse and troubleshoot from there. Remove bulbs etc one at a time untill the problem is discovered. I would also check the last place any work was accomplished and see if there was something left loose in the area. Good luck...
