Chances are you have a trapped/corroded wire touching the chassis, this is causing a direct short and blowing the fuse.

Inspect the light fitting to make sure it is not full of water and all the wires are ok.

take off your bulb, and make sure that it has good contact to seat, also, check your light relay, cable short circuit etc.

I'd guess you've fitted an aftermarket stereo & used the dash illumination light circuit for the earth.
