Horn fuse blows when horn is depressed.

Horn fuse blows when horn is depressed.
So my horn stopped working, check the fuse, it's blown. Replace the fuse, turn the car on, inspect the fuse and it's fine. Honk the horn, hear a click and the fuse blows.
I thought it might have been the horns so I replaced them and that didn't solve my problem.
I know everyone naturally assumes its the interior drivers side harness but thats in perfect shape AND I spliced the wires anyway even though those wires are only the horn trigger wires and don't involve power.
From all the diagrams I've read, the trigger goes into the fuse box to the relay then branches out to the two horns via 2 red/black wires. I thought it could be the female end connectors so I removed them and added new ones and the problem still occurs.
Anyone have any idea what could cause this?

That's what I've concluded. I'm not interested in tearing up the harness so I've decided to just run a seperate relay because I can't check to see if anything is shorting under the fuse box where it connects tot he relay.
Seems like this is an isolated incident but I posted to see if anyone else had similar problems.
