Default 92 civic brake light and horn fuse blowing when i step down on brakes

brake light and horn fuse keep blow when i step down on brakes
i have replaced the brake switch, torn up the whole interoir found no bad wires, checked all grounds, bulbs and their sockets and the werid thing is that all the lights work like high and low beam, dash lights, signals, and even the tail lights but has no brake light when pressing on the brakes

Unplug the rear connectors for all three brake lights. Does this prevent the fuse from blowing?

There's a wire short somewhere between the pedal switch and those rear connectors. If you can locate any connectors in between the switch and the rear connectors, then unplug them to see whether the fuse stops blowing.
