[QUOTE="adyingbreed, post: 1462473, member: 99431"] I had them electrical tape wrapped but it did look like the toggle switch had either a little manufacturer defect in plastic housing or there was a brief surge that might have been hot and melted the plastic a little. The switch is not currently ziptied as I had removed it to do the wire twist test. It is reconnected and working though. Because of that possible defect/melt in housing I think I'll replace it just in case it's the switch that caused my fuse burn out. Should I stick with 20 Amp on/off? Also I'm going to be carrying a spare main fuse, a T handle Allen key, and a multitool with me now, just in case it happens again so I don't have to push it to a residential street while I walk home and wait for replacement parts lol.
