If a 10 ampere fuse blows constantly it should be replaced with 15 ampere fuse?

Most definetly not. If a ten amp fuse has been used to protect a circuit, then it has been rated by guidlines to be the most that that circuit can hold. If you put a 15 amp fuse in its place, you are effectively allowing more current to flow through the cables than it is rated for, which will lead to excessive heating in cables and possible fire. If your fuse is constantly blowing, it means there is most likely something wrong with the cables, like a short circuit. This is extremely dangerous. Call a qualified electrician to fix the problem

How many 100watt 220volts bulbs can be safely used in a circuit with a fuse of 5 ampere rating?
The current (ampere) changes from a high value at switch on to a run current of of approx 0.5 amperes. The fuse blows at switch on if too many lamps are connected. It also depends on the cable used to wire up the lamps and the length of the cable.

Replaced the directional-wiper switch on 96 windstar and now the horn blows constantly when fully assembled - horn blows when wheel is removed and starts when wheel touches steering shaft - airbag off?
There generally is a insulator on or around the horn plunger. Did it get forgotten, pinched, etc.? I believe the problem is here. Airbag is unrelated I believe.

A renewable resource is replaced instantaneously, in most cases. Sunlight shines constantly, at least during daylight hours, no matter how much of it we use to generate electricity on our roofs. Wind blows as long as there are pressure differences around the world. Other renewable energy sources are the same (hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal and others).
