    Hello,
    Yesterday, there was a heavy rainstorm and water some how leaked on my fusebox. All the fuses are fine except the Blinker fuse. I took it out and cleaned the terminal ends but to no avail. There is dark brown-black material on the inside of the glass, so I took it out and went to O'Reilly's, but couldn't find one the same size, so I asked if they had any in stock. They said no, and that it was not a normal size fuse. I also went up the road to AutoZone and they said the same thing. They recommended that I go to RadioShack or a custom audio place. I went to both and I STILL cannot find a 15 Amp 26 mm long fuse (diagram #6 on one of the diagrams I found on this website: http://1bad6t.com/Maverick/repair/c...e to use hand signals to get places now. :49:

    Youre suppose to replace those! I just wrap a tiny piece of foil around them and put them back! :rofl2:
