There is a short-circuit somewhere in the taillight wiring that is causing a large current to flow through the fuse and blowing it. Fix the short, then install a new fuse.

This can be tough. A car I had several years ago did something similar, and it turned out that the problem was a shorted backup switch on the transmission. I spent several hours tracing wiring diagrams at the local Chrysler-Dodge dealer.
