Default Running Lights/Dashlight fuse keeps breaking

Car has been garaged most of this winter. Took it out earlier today and the dashlight/running light fuse popped. So I thought no big deal I'll just replace it. Replaced it, popped again, and I am like wtf?

Have tried every fuse: 10a, 15a, 20a, 25a. All popped. I've never encountered a problem like this with a car before so I am honestly lost on what to do. Any ideas on what maybe causing this? I haven't made any adjustments to the car, first time driving it in months and it decides to do this, lol

check grounds. Do you have an aftermarket radio? Check the wiring on that also if you have one. Also check corner light wiring. When that happened to me it was the corner light wiring.

Will do.

No radio in the car at all. Just an aftermarket alarm that has been working fine since being installed (6+ months ago, this problem just occured)

Still no avail.

Check grounds, they are all solid.

Removed power from tail lights and blinkers, fuse still pops.

Any other ideas out there? When it comes to electrical stuff I am totally lost.
