"stop" fuse

so my battery has been dying for a while now and i had enough charging so i went and got the battery and alternator checked, good.

Drain is at 1.2 amps on a 10 amp reading. so i started pulling fuses and it ended up being the "stop" fuse which is for brake lights and i dont know what else.

But the brake lights arent always on and they do go on and off as i push the pedal in and out.

When the fuse is out it shows 0.00 across, no idea what it is, need help cause i like people not crashing into the back of me lol

Here is a wiring diagram. http://foxed.ca/rx7manual/oldindex.html

It looks like the horn is also on the same fuse, if it is a S4. I wish I was more helpfull. try disconnecting the horn and see what the draw is.

Try pulling the Horn relay. I am not sure who disconnected the horn, but if it was stuck on something is still powering the relay that might be your problem.
