Could be a short somewhere, does it blow right away? I would try putting a meter to each side of the fuse contact, see if one side reads ground and the other reads 12.... Hope this helps

Well, if possible, I would take it back to the dealer if it is under warranty, unless you changed things like your parking or head lights, if so then, I would check the bulbs, and the wiring, anything you changed...
