Debadged, Tonneau cover, Grillcraft MX grill, OKLED 20" light bar in grill, Aero AT2525 muffler

So my grill light stopped working the other night. It's a 30 inch double row from okledlightbars. Have had it for a while and the fuse just popped....well kind of if you wanna call it melted.

Will replace it in the morning but noticed it was a 30 amp. Kind of surprised it was a 30 amp for an led bar.

That fuse failed from a bad connection in the fuse holder. Loose or corroded connections create heat.

I've seen cheap Chinese fuses do the same thing, regularly
