Default Brake prob (stop lights)

I have 91 ef civic, the fuse for the stop lights and horn keep blowing. The wire that runs to the fuse box under the engine bay, seems to be grounding, but i can't find it. Ontil i can find the prob, i want to know if any one have an idea what the three wires coming from the brake senser is? I want to rig the stop lights so they work.

please help!!

the white/green wire goes from the fuse block to the brake switch--this wire also goes to the horn switch also. there is a green/white that goes from the brake light switch to the rear lights. -> at least this is how my car is....

one reason why the fuse keeps blowing is that theres too much voltage going through the fuse. also check if theres a short-to-ground before the load. thats usually the case with blown fuses

the horn wire is good, so that don't even seem like that's the prob.
do any one knows what the second green/white is .
