Just unhook all the connections to the output Transistors and see if the fuse still blows.

The yellow wire of the slip on connector goes to the Emitter of the transistor.
If your Transistors are mot marked on the bottom then if you look at them up side down with the slip on terminals closest to your left, the Emitter will be the top terminal.
At this point to not harm the power transformer with all this blowing fuses stuff I would derate the fuse just for now by 1/2 amp or like Bill posted for all of 20 bucks build yourself a light bulb limiter!
