I had a similar problem a few (20 or so) years ago and seem to remember a chaffed wire leading to the horn switch in the steering wheel hub. Every time I tried to trouble shoot in the driveway I could never find it. Like you, as soon as I took it on the road (i.e., turned the steering wheel) it would blow. One or two days later after having replaced the 262nd fuse, with the ignition on, (for the radio) while greasing the front end, I turned the wheel and "poof" the fuse blew. I seem to remember it was one of those @#$% jobs to fix the wire as there was precious little slack in the wire. I ended up having to pull the wheel to get enough access to the wire to repair it. once repaired, I pulled the wire far enough back into the steering column so that it could no longer contact the steering wheel and wear the insulation off again while driving.
Hope this helps.
