OK .. looked at the fuse holder .. yeah totally melted (anything plastic). the 15amp blade fuse that was in there is stuck to the holder.
Conclusions could either be a bad crimp as stated above or that the fuse itself got so hot, that it couldn't melt to blow (as it should) and just melted everything around it. I literally opened the thing and the plastic around the fuse was melted. Anything metal stayed in tact. The guage wire used is 16 I believe. Any suggestions? Should I up the amp? Lower the amp? I mean obviously I'm going to get another blade fuse holder. Or should I get a mini blade fuse?
