I replaced it, and it blew again in a couple days. I decided to replace it with a 15 amp fuse but it also blew after a while. I don't know what could be causing this.. Any ideas? Do you guys think it would be safe to try a 20 amp fuse there?
No. What ever you do, do not go with a bigger fuse. How did you wire your LED's?

The LEDs are wired to the driving lights (side markers) inside the headlight. When the fuse blows neither the LEDs nor the side markers work.
