Can you open / close the doors with the fuse not blowing? If so, do the windows move up/down as they should when closing / opening the doors?

Maybe try disconnecting the horn, if it is not working perhaps it is shorted causing the fuse to blow (a wild guess).

There are many connections / switches / motors tied to the alarm system. It will help if you can narrow it down. Are the two alarm codes still present?

I only have Fridays to work on my car, with schedule permitting! Disconnecting my horn is the next attempt…… have never been able to locate the “alarm horn” as not next to battery like on my 2 earlier boxsters (01s and 99 base); reading other posts looks like 03&04 do not have alarm horns? I also did disconnect my passenger door in attempt to rule that out and still had fuse blow…… wondering if this could have anything to do with the ignition box everyone talks about that’s causing electrical gremlins ? Not sure if related but running out of ideas and have 6 more fuses to use (laughing but tired of buying fuses at this point)….. will update on Friday or Saturday after cked horn…
