Default HELP!! Park Lamps fuse gets blown when I hit a hard Bump!

My park lamp fuse (which is also for the inside night lights) keeps getting blown when i hit a hard bump! Its driving me crazy.
Has anyone experienced this or maybe know what could be causing it? Maybe a wire grounding? I just don't know where to start. Someone please help me!

Do you have an aftermarket stereo or other contraption installed? If so, look for the sheet metal screw they drove through the wiring harness.

Check your socket where the turn signal bulb plugs in. The socket, especially on older models, gets burn and loose.
