Thanks for the tip. That's a good indicator that you have a bad fuse masquerading as a good one. An easier method (for future reference) is to read the voltage drop across the fuse with the switch open and closed. (For those of you who aren't as familiar with these types of tests) With your meter in the "volts" position, put one of the leads on each end of the fuse. If the fuse is good, there will be 0V across it. If it is bad, you will see all or most of the voltage developed across the fuse, in this case, it would've read 12 volts when the switch was closed or "on". Just a little trick that we use in the mill to find a bad fuse without having to disconnect the power first.

Yeah I guess so its great to have a little knowledge about the basic of troubleshooting. But I think when talking about electrical its better if we let the professionals do their job.
