I blew the head unit fuse on my 1996 type s prelude. just wondering where i would find the fuse so i can replace it

check the fuses under the hood I seen this exact same thing happen to a friends 95 Honda prelude and it blew a fuse


hope this helps

does all else work? car run and drive and head lamps work at same time, yes,then you blew the turn/haz fuse in the fuse box.
the operators guide answsers were those are. read it.

use a test light

check owners manual, it should have location of the fuse box, and what each fuse corresponds with. fuses are easy and cheap to get at any car parts place.

Either you blew a fuse or missing a ground.

ok so hear me out, DO NOT! i repeat, NOT buy a h23... honda stopped making this motor completely in 97 these are the worst motors in the world! i know, your rod bearing blew, I KNOW! ive donr 30 of them. Buy an h22 swap for your car... or just the motor.. everything bolts up the same...then if you wan the performance wire up the vtec... 92-96 preludes came with the option of an h22... if you could find one out of your year model and not out of a 97 up, that would be best so all your vaccum lines are the same... youll have to use the h22 harness and ecu.. if its standard, you need to use a standard h22 harness, if its automatic, use an auto harness
hope this helps
replace the motor mounts that are bad

CHECK THE ACC FUSE ITS PROBABLY BLEW TO...

The Prelude SI is the nicest model Prelude.

at least you know were to start,key on the fuse that blew.and everything controlled by it.i'm assuming that every time you replace the fuse now,it blows .think back before the short,was there any electricial problems,or devices that didnt work.,wires are melted together,or motors are shorted out.putting a bigger fuse in probably burnt a wire open(meaning got too hot and broke)whatever blew the fuse to start with,is most likley where the meltdown is ,start unplugging the things on that fuse,one at a time,remove tail lightbulbs,inspect thre sockets,look up under the dash at the wiring ,your clock,tach.and gas gauge ,are there,observation is almost 90%of trouble shooting anything .fixing it is easy pop the hood spend some time just looking at every thing follow wires make sure they arent melted together ,and are plugged in,just unplugging something and plugging it back in will show problems,things will fall apart.clips will break and hopefully you will see something obvious,shorts are never fun,do you have any electrical background?and know how to use a multimeter .if you do reply ,

did you check the steering pump, AC compression pump, etc or other engine components ? it could be something other than the engine.
