I had the same problem when I first got my DeLorean. Steve Wynne suggested that I just replace the entire fuse with an in-line fuse from a hardware store. (The connection had basically melted away from the melting fuse) I went to Sears, got the proper parts for the right amperage, and I solved a major problem in my car for less than a dollar, and 10 mins worth of hard work.
