You think that melted spot on the fuse cover comes from the factory that way? ;-)

Woody, make sure your contacts are squeaky clean -- it's the lip of the central hole that actually makes the contact. And if you can, use one of the Littelfuse glasss-cased fuses for that circuit. I think the designation is GBC-16. They don't tarnish the way the uncased fuses do.

Yrs, D
