    Do not use a bigger fuse, as the wiring is only good for that current. Does it blow without the trailer hooked up? If yes, it's the truck, if not, there is a short to ground on the trailer.

    Most likely the solenoid wire has gotten chaffed inside the actuator, remove the inner member and inspect the blue wire and how it is routed
