    Question brake/hazard lights

    So, the other day, I discovered that my brake lights are dead. Hazards are dead as well, but, they function fine as turn signals. I checked the fuse box. The 15A fuse was blown, so, I popped in an identical fuse. The next day, the fuse was blown again. I'm thinking that the wires might be grounding out somewhere, so I'm checking on that. Does anyone have an idea as to whats causing this problem?
    The problem car is a 1982 Accord. So, for now, I drive Camry. Embarassing.
