i dont think it would light up if it was a fuse though.. there should be no power going to the unit if it was a fuse.. it has to be another problem..

OLT is the man when it comes to electric stuff... no need to argue with him there.

Good question...I don't know the answer, but this is often the issue with faulty climate control units.
