Hello there, thank you for asking about your 2004 Honda Civic. You should try to disconnect the AC compressor and run the car as if the AC compressor is plugged in to see if the fuse blows still. If it does not blow the fuse then you may have a shorted AC clutch coil, or the wire to the coil clamp has cut into the wire. Check the wire and measure resistance of the clutch coil to see if it is shorted. Replace the coil or compressor assembly if its shorted. If you need help from a certified mechanic, you can have a technician from YourMechanic replace the AC compressor at your home or office.
