My 86 300sdl left me stuck the other day when the glow plug light would not come on. I found the fuse in front of the drivers side wheel-well on some sort of black box (about 2x4x4 inches) was discolored and bent but not broken in the middle. I replaced it and the car started fine. But under one of the terminals of this fuse, the black plastic housing is deformed and partly melted. Could this be the sign of another problem somewhere else or could it just be from age and wear? Anything else to look for that could cause this? TIA, Shannon
