Default 2003 Honda CRV electrical issues?

First thing we noticed was keyless remote not working. Just thought ok will get new battery or remote.

A few days later the bright light indicator would not go off. The lights work fine but indicator randomly comes and stays for a long period of time. There is a burning smell coming through vents but can't find source.

The hazard light fuse was next. Went to replace the fuse but blew again.

Then AC compressor would shut off causing the valve to pop off.

After that CRV would not start at times. Had to replace starter.

As of now it starts great. Still have indicator issue, hazard fuse, and AC issue ( which now has a leak I'm guessing because line froze)

Honda dealer said $100 hour to diagnose....no way

welcome to the forum. your hazard fuse blows due to dead short to something in that line. the haz unit or something is grounded or the burning smell could be a line chaft into metal or line to line and causes the short, need to take the dash apart to view the wires or go from under the dash if you can. a/c issure could be the same or the line with the haz may be bundled with the a/c line if both went out the same time. line cold is working line, after a few minutes the line will show white frost on it.
