Why dont dashboard lights and parking lights work and fuse keeps blowing?

The fuse blows because of a short circuit. That means the electricity leaves the wire and reaches bare metal before it gets to the light bulbs. The fuse will continue to blow until the electricity goes through the bulbs.
Instead of replacing fuses, find the place between the bulb and the fuse box where the insulation is worn off the wire and the bare wire is touching metal. Sometimes it is in the socket holding the light bulb. I use a meter. It simplifies the problem.
