that same thing happend to my wifes 4th gen the "small light" fuse keeps blowing. I went over all the wiring and I cant figure what it is. I havent done anything like wire something up or anything like that. It has a stock radio, no speakers. The only thing I can think of is it has a new dist cap. but that has to do with the igniton. I think we're in the same boat. It sux! Any one has any other ideas of what it might be, any help would be appreciated!

ok. i took out the amp. all of the wires are still there because i didnt feel like rewiring everyhing all over again, but the amp is out of the car. the fuse still keeps blowing. the funny thing is, the fuse works for about 15 mins of driving but then it blows again. what the hell is a "small light"?!?!? thats the mosr retarded deccription a fuse can have. there are only aout a million small lights in the damn car. pardon my anger, but this is really getting on my nerves. stupid honda.

damn..$95? i just got one for $160. the ****in cop got me for seatbelt too. i replaced about 10 fuses since the first one blew out and the weird thing is.. the last one i put in has lasted about 3 days now. hmm.. maybe the problem is fixed! i dont know how or why.. but its working now. but still.. id like to know why i had the problem to begin with. one small thing i forgot to mention, i was involved in an accident.. my bumper, headlight, and hood have all been pushed back. does that matter? stupid "small light" cost me $160 already.

hmmm.. the small light fuse from your generation is different from the 6gen. Check your manual for the voltage (or whatever you call that thing) of that fuse. That thing happened to me once w/ my 99 Accord. After I installed a honda tape player that goes along w/ my honda cd player, those lights went dead. Found out it was just the small light fuse even though it affected all the big lights. It could have been that accident or something you just add on.

check on the fuse box and see the fuse rating.
u might have too small of a fuse in there.
