That is the way to do it.
You can also do it from under the dash. Pull the fuse out. Now on the fuse holder, touch the aligator clip to one side and the point of the test light to the other side of the fuse clip. Make sure that you have everything off (like the dome light, aftermarket radio with a clock)when you are doing this. It will light when you find the circuit that has the short. Now, does your horn work? I can't tell you how many dead batterys after 3 days I have had because the horn relay has gone bad. If you don't have a working horn, start there.
