the conection between the gold end and the rest of the fuse was bad, it was not as strong as the fuse itself and burnt instead of the fuse itself just blowing

it is prob one of several things. one could be the fuse type. if the fuse didn't fit extremely well it could have caused the fuse holder to heat up tii it melted the plastic and destroyed the connection in the end of the fuse as well. It could have been a bad fuse(not likly though). could have been to big of a fuse. Or the fuse holder just got to hot.
