I wanted to re-wire my power windows so I could operate them with the ignition key off. I cut into the window hot wire in the door arm rest and ran the new wire back through the door and under the dash. I ran a wire from other the hood, connected to the AUX post beside the under hood fuse boxes. I put in an in-line fuse holder and used a 10 amp fuse (the old style glass ones) The wire I used was 16 ga. After I hooked it up and tried it, everything was fine, but the next day when I tried to use it while the car was running I blew the fuse. I replaced it several times with the same results. I also tried connecting the line to the hot wire of the cigarette lighter, but had the same results. Should I have used a stonger fuse, heaver wire or could there be something wrong with the way I wired it?

1989 Honda Accord Lxi 2.0 FI I need to remove the alternator from my 89 Accord. I figured this would be a an easy process, but I can't figure out how to actually remove the alternator from the engine compartment, there is no space or opening large enough to get this alternator out, it won't come out through the top, and it won't drop out through the bottom. Someone said something about removing the underframe? Dealer said there should be a bubble type bracket or something, but I found no such item. I even removed the alternator mounting bracket. The alternator it just too large to move it up or under. How can I get this alternator out? Thanks
