Has anyone ever experienced the following problem:

Everytime I press my horn, I blow the fuse under the hood. I thought maybe the horn unit was shorting out but I removed the horn and the fuse still blows everytime.

Sounds like you are still shorting the circuit somewhere along the power wire to the horn. It's possible the wire has rubbed against a body panel so even though you remove the horn, the wire is still "hot" and is continuing to ground. Only way is to fish your way backwards along the wire and find the source. Also, make sure you are replacing the fuse with an equal amp rating. Make sure you don't replace it with an amp rating too big or else your circuit will not be protected.

I had this problem when i turned on the A/C in my Pontiac. There is a short somewhere in the circuit.

I'm having this problem right now too. I have a 2003 TLS. I don't know if you noticed that circuit has a few things on it, when the fuse blows, my brake lights don't work and i can't shift the car out of park to drive, when i replace the fuse everything works. It's a 20AMP fuse under the hood. Some times i can get away with 2 or 3 blows before the fuse goes. I'm praying it's the horn, i did a test, i removed the Horn Relay and that fuse did not blow, so i'm guessing it's one of the horns, becasue there are two, high and a low.

It turned out to be one of the two horns in my case. I would suggest disconnecting one horn at a time and checking to see if you are blowing the fuse. They both are very simple to get too, all you have to do is remove the Acura grill and you have easy access to both. Let me know how it goes
