Have you done any electrical wiring recently? Look around, sounds like a short somewhere.

Tried today to find some loose wires or something but didn't find anything, any ideas on how to find the hot wire?

Thats great that you were able to fix that problem. Mine blew out today and I have already pulled out all bulbs in the back, the front corner light bulbs (for some reason, they do not turn on when the fuse is blown either), my cruise control light, my dimmer switch, the light in the glove box, the lights in the coin tray, the entire gauge cluster, as well as the harness for the air conditioner control. After all that, the fuse blows right when I turn the light switch. Hopefully tampering with some of the wires behind the radio will fix this damn problem.

Your power ANT wire to teh headunit can blow this fuse if it's grounded. IE touching metal. A wire-nut or some electric tape should fix 'er right up.
