    Dude you’re now my go to for my Honda CR-V, thanks for your videos.
    Maybe you can help with this: everytime I honk the horn it blows the fuse and that circuit also disables the shifter. Is this a common issue with ‘99s? I REALLY like horns... I can’t really find a short, any ideas? I thought maybe it has something do with the airbag possibly, the car needs to go in for a recall that will hopefully get rid of the red srs light that has been on forever.
