Toyota tacoma 2000 blows tail light fuse when you plug the trailer?

Fuses are designed and intended to protect the wiring from SHORT CIRCUITS and OVERLOADING. When a fuse "blows" instantly upon connecting the trailer wiring to the vehicle wiring connector,suggests a short in the trailer wiring, or one of the light sockets/fixtures. If the fuse did not blow instantly, but over a period of minutes, would be suggestive ofan overload condition. Sinceit blows the tail light fuse, logic suggests the short should be found in the tail light wires or bulb sockets on the trailer. Another possibility, but very remote, is a defect in one or both of the connector plugs. Look for an area ofcut or chaffed insulation onthe trailer tail light wires, where the wire may be "pinched" in a crevicebetween twometal members of the trailer frame, OR where the wire makes a very sharp turn around a metal edge.j3h. you have a short in the tail light wiring of the trailer
