Realised recently that my horn wasn't working, then later on friend said that the brake light's not working. Soon found out that it was a busted Fuse, but when i replaced it with a new one, the horn works, but when i applied brakes it busted again.

Any help ?

If you keep blowing fuses when you apply the brake then you have a short circuit somewhere.

no easy way around it. you must trace/follow the brake wires back to the short.

or just pay an auto electrician.

maybe you've used the wrong bulb.

check the bulbs as they may have melted inside causing a short

also worth checking out is the brake light switch near the brake pedal; the wiring connections; and make sure there is not a cracked lense letting water into light.
