Fuses And Circuit Breaker Problems of Dodge RAM

1. Replaced fuse (original equipment) on my 2002 Dodge Ram pickup for the left rear trailer lights with storehouse fuse bought at harbor freight store. 2. Fuse did not "blow" as it should and "welded" itself into fuse block. I cannot remove the remnants of the fuse. 3. This may necessitate complete replacement of the fuse block at considerable cost. Possible hundreds of dollars.
