Why does my parking light fuse keep blowing?
If the fuse blows then, there is a dead short in a wire. If it doesn’t blow, then light by light, put them back in until you get to one that blows the fuse. The bulb for that spot may be bad or there is a socket issue. Hopefully just this fuse is just for the parking lights so look at your diagram to make sure.

Is it illegal to drive without a brake light?
First of all, you will get pulled over and be fined by a police officer since it is definitely illegal to drive without a working brake light.
