Fuse Holder f-ed up

[HailAngus]

First off, I know my amplifier isn't good. Don't tell me to get a new one because it sucks. haha I just want to know if this can be fixed.

I bought that stupid DUAL combo 460 watt amp and 2 12inch subs already in a box 2 Black Friday's ago for $150.00 at Best Buy.

This summer I started having problems with the fuse holder on the amp (40 amp fuse). It was at first easily fixed by bending the actual fuse slightly because apparently it wasn't getting a good connection to both clips(?).

Just a week ago, it has been a constant problem. Almost everytime I get back in my car it already needs to be corrected. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

At this point, I can only get the Amp light to stay green if I push and hold in the fuse.

I took the best pictures I could and they all ****. but here are some

Any suggestions on how to fix this problem?//content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

Thanks.

open it up and push the connector back out, put the fuse in(making sure of a good connection), close 'er up.

you aren't replacing that fuse are you? the holder might be melted if you are blowing fuses.

The fuse is in good condition, but I haven't replaced it. But, it does appear to be melted around the clip.
