maybe water in your taillight housings causing a short and blowing a fuse? They leak really bad.

taillight gaskets for one. The other i dunno mine fills with water to I have a hatch. try changing the gasket I guess first. I let mine drain before I drive any where and I park with the nose going down hill it seems to help.
