Hi, I'm sorry it's not quite as simple as that. The wire is hardwired to the fuse contacts, if you
pull out the wire you pull out the shaped contact. There is one of these either side of the fuse
which is pushed onto it by the plastic of the fuse box. If you have bad contact it is a case of
cleaning them where the fuse is. Incidently there are two fuse lengths 30mm and 32mm make
sure you have the longer ones because the short ones don't give full contact and can overheat
with the current, plus the plastic of the fuse box has a low melting point thus reducing the
pressure of the contacts on the fuse and making the situation worse. If not noticed in time it
can lead to complete meltdown.
