Fixed my Drivers seat blowing fuses
I finally found out why my driverseat was blowing fuses.
I took the side control panel screw out and pulled the cover back a little to expose the back of the controls.
I found that the wiring harness had worn away the inulation from the wires and was grounding out on the seat frame and blowing the fuses.
A little electrical tape to re-insulate the wires and everything works perfectly again.
Just wanted to share in case someone else had this same issue.

Seriously, thanks for sharing. A little info about wether it it's a power seat or what fuse it was blowing and what model Honda you have would help though. Also a call to Honda would make them aware of the potential situation. If they get enough calls, they might issue a bulletin or recall.
It's a 01' MDX with 105k on it. Power drivers seat. The cover on the left side of the seat where all the adjustment controls are. It has 3 screws in it to hold it on. Remove the screws, pull the cover back and you can see where the wires go around the front of the seat and are actually mounted so when the seat moves forward it pulls the wires into the end of the seat frame railing and cuts the wires. I had 2 bare wires touching the seat track and gounding out. Blowing both fuses for the drivers seat adjustments. Both 15 amp fuses.
Just wrapped in electrical tape and it was fixed.
