Check in behind your radio(deck) because there are some sharp metal braces in there that sometimes wires rub against and short out - thats the fuse they usually short. I had it happen to my integra.

Had the exact same problem. Physically unhook the horn from behind the bumper and see if the fuse still blows. The horn probably has rusted out connectors. I went to the reckers and bought a used horn and cleaned up all the connectors and the problem went away but check it by unhooking the horn first.

to elaborate on what he said, did you replace your taillights? if so you may have pinched one of the wires causing the short. Use a multimeter to check your connections. Use the Helms manual in the premiere section for the wiring schematics

Make sure to trace your steps (note which wires you have checked and not checked) or the electronic gremlins will win. :*****:
Invest in a multimeter, so you don't spend $20 in replacement fuses. Been there, done that.

I have an extra set of taillight harnesses if you want it. It's been spliced together, not by me, but you're welcome to have it. I can bring it to tonight's meet but I won't be there until later - around 9-9:30.
