Default RE: How to fix a twisted profile fuse?

Brian,

I believe I spoke to a guy named Jim on the phone last time I tried to remove the twist. If I remember, he told me to lay it flat and go over it with an iron. I did do that. I took a ceiling tile and dug out holes for all the tabs already glued to the side so that it could lay flat an tried to re-shrink, but the last fuse not only had a twist but also a bend to it and I was not successful.

I guess I don't know what covering is used hence not what temperature to use to achieve maximum shrinkage.

I do appreciate you getting me a replacement fuse and understand that the delay was due to having it shipped from Asia. Part of my frustration was what I perceived as a lack of communication on why it took so long.

I will give you a call later today to have you walk me through the steps so that I can get it right this time.

Regards,
