Default Accord "small light" fuse keeps blowing

hi. there is a fuse labled "small light" under the hood of my 1994 honda accord. does anyone know what this fuse is for? it just keeps blowing ever since i installed my system. i disconected the power wire for my amp and it still blows. there are a million small lights in the damn car. the only ones i know that are blown is my ashtray light and my cruise control light. do u guys think it could be that? every time i replace the blown fuse, it blows again when i turn on my lights. this is aproblem because all of my interior lights go out and even more important, my rear auxilary lights are out too.

What size cable did you install for your system, and where in the firewall did you run it? Does it share a hole with other wires? If you ran it with some other wires, you may have got a wire nicked so that it's shorting out.

i ran 4 gauge wire along the firewall on the passengers side, under the water pump. do any "small light" wires run under there?

Just have to look, I don't know right off, but if there are, a 4 guage wire certainly wouldn't give any other little wires any respect.

A Honda tech found (after 4 hours of searching) that the lead to the passenger vanity mirror light was shorting out against the roof underneath the headliner. Does your mirror light work?
