Default i hate electrical crap

My #8 fuse keeps blowing out on me. Its a 15 amp fuse that runs the radio, power mirrors, key switch buzzer, and courtesy lights. I am trying to rule out which one is causing the fuse to blow. Was wondering if anyone knew where i can find the Key switch buzzer. Also if i disconnect the switch that controls the mirrors, will that take all power from them and therefore rule out them as the short?

If its the same one that runs the fuel door popper too
mine blows out every time my tuner plugs in his super code puller.

check the code checker plugs up in the driver side firewall
make sure something isn't shorting out right there.

check to see if there is a coin or piece of metal in the cig lighter that was my problem, if that fuse is connected to the horn then its possible that the horn is shorting out also that has happened to me.
