Problem with parking lights

I started having a fuse blow leading to my lights after some investigation I found burn Mark's on my swich and connector going into the swich. I replaced both and I'm still having my fuse blow. From what I can tell it looks like the problem is the wire going to the parking lights(a tan with white stripe wire) dose anyone know where I should look to fund the cause of the problem? can a blown bulb in my roof marker lights cause my fuse to keep blowing?

Marker bulbs, any bulb I suppose, can cause a short to ground. Look at it. Is the inside of the bulb (globe) black? If so, it is likely the cause. Inspect your trailer light plug and wiring in the rear bumper as another possible cause for blowing the fuse.
