Replace the bulb holder, wires coming out of the holder and the seal.

replacing the lenses will help, the bulbs will help to, along with the sockets......but you need to do all of them, and add a little electrical grease around the socket lips

if it is water that is causing them to short out. What i did was drill small holes in the bottom of the light for the water to drain out. Did this about 2 years ago and haven't had anymore problems with the light blowing out.
