The fuses I checked all have terminals on the back just for that purpose.
What I failed to realize was that those red blocks in the hood fuse box are also fuses (45A). The problem was that one of them had a poor connection and must have been arcing. It burned the plastic of the fuse but not the fuse itself.
I cleaned the contacts of the fuse as best I could for now until I can get a replacement. Everything is back to normal again.
Does anyone know if these are a universal item or Subaru (SVX) specific?
