Default Stop/Horn fuse #20 keeps blowing.

Just wondering if anyone knows exactly where the horn/brake light ground is located. My horn/brake lights worked fine before I pulled my dash to dye it and now my horn works fine but if I step on my brake pedal the fuse will blow. Just wondering if there is any way I can fix it without pulling the dash back out again and locating the bad wire.

You appear to a short in the brake light power wire after the pedal switch under the dash.

Sorry, 95 Civic CX hatch.
Is that something I can get to without removing the dash again? Do you by any chance have a diagram?

The shorted wire is Grn/Wht. Start at the brake pedal switch and trace it on both branches leading toward the brake lights and and ECU.
