I recently posted about my brake light not working. I had checked "visually" fuse 7 and it looked Ok. It was the only glass fuse out of the bunch, all others being original ceramic.

Before doing anything, I decided to just swap a ceramic one instead of the glass one. Sure enough the brake lights started working. The glass fuse looked good though, maybe it doesn't seat in as well as the ceramic one. What's the deal?

For any electrical grimlin one should always play with his own fuse before anything else for sure.

Any preferences for ceramic verus glass? And I thought glass was an upgrade as some would like yiu to believe. I am back to all ceramic now.
