Tailights not working ???

Hey i have a 95 maxima and it seems my taillights are not working. The brake lights corner signals and headlamps are working but thats all. The front corner lights and the back 2 tailights wont turn on when the lights are on. I changed the fuse and everything went back to normal and worked but then the fuse blows again within a day. I have gone through 4 fuses in a week someone can you please tell me what the problem is.

OH and i checked my ecu code i just have a bad knock sensor

Something is probably shorted. What size fuse did you replace it with and which of 2 fuses for the parking lights are you replacing?

Would you happen to be using the parking lights as signal for a relay or did the brighter corner light mod?

For reference there are 2 fuses. A 15A fuse under the hood labled as tail and a 7.5A fuse labeled as Tail L behind the dash board.

Moisture could also cause this from a crack in a light somehwhere. I found when this happened it was just a fuse for me.
