There was a service bulletin for the motor running hot and blowing the fuse. Check the fuse and check the cooling hose at the blower motor. Here is the bulletin:

Blower (Heater) Motor Gets Hot and Blows A Fuse
SOURCE:
Honda Service News November 2003

TITLE:
Heater Blower Motor Gets Hot or Blows a Fuse

APPLIES TO:
1990-04 Accords, 1992-04 Civics, 1997-04 CR-Vs, 2003 Elements, 2000-04 Insights, 1995-04 Odysseys, 1996-02 Passports, 2003-04 Pilots, 1997-01 Preludes, and 2000-04 S2000s

SERVICE TIP:
A blocked cooling hose for the heater blower motor can cause the motor to overheat, draw more current, blow a fuse, or even melt its plastic impeller. Before you order a replacement blower motor, make sure the cooling hose isn't blocked. On some models, you will find the cooling hose molded into the blower motor housing; on other models, it is a separate piece. Check the S/M for the vehicle you are working on to determine the actual location of the cooling hose.

Let us know if the information helped you out.
