Parking light keep blowing fuse

Looking for some help!
I have a problem with my running lights. It blows the fuse it seems with no rhyme or reason . It has blow the fuse when I am driving or some times I will turn off my Excursion with the running light working but when I start the truck back up the lights are off with a bad fuse.
The things I have already done to the truck.
I changed the trailer plug and changed all the light bulbs to Led. I did not see any Burning problem at the fuse box.
thanks for reading

There's probably a chaffed wire somewhere that's making intermittent contact with ground. Unfortunately finding it entails tracing the circuit.

I had a short in the socket itself for one of the bulbs. If I recall, I ordered a new harness and sockets off eBay. Haven't had a problem yet.
