My tail lights are not coming on at all. I've change both bulbs and still nothing, so I change the fuse under the hood and then the lights came on for only a second and then went back out, and the fuse was blown, so I put a new fuse in again and the same thing happen. The fuse keeps blowing. what is going on?
