Well this is great....

what guage is the wire?

Looks like about 12, maybe 13.....whatever it takes....

Electrical gremlins are evil

I would take a look at the light side of the fuse. Think you might have a short to ground. Or the light went **** up and now draws too much juice.

Awww, some solder and flux and a soldering iron, and you'll be good as new.

I have seen this before with aftermarket (mostly Chinese) fuses/fuse holders. They’re cheaply made, which results in high resistance. High resistance = heat. At least it didn’t catch your truck on fire!

What kind of light bar do you have?

I have no idea. This is the fuse that's coming straight off the positive side of the battery. Looks to be a 30 amp fuse. I just wish the fuse blew and didn't take the whole housing with it!

It's called a thermal, fuse holder contacts were barely making any contact with the fuse.

running 30 amps through an atc fuse is never good. although atc fuses are made up to 40 amp, the fuse holder itself a lot of times cant handle the current.

Ohm my!

HaHa. "Ohm" my....Very creative response!!! I lacked the resistance to not applaud that one.

Let's hope this phase is rectified.
