That's not going to help, they won't ship out of the US. OP, wire in a circuit breaker to replace the fuse in you panel. When we had glass fuses, you could buy an exact replacement that would snap into the fuse panel. They might make something similar today, don't know; especially in Manilla. With the breaker, it trips, and then resets. Instead of constantly replacing blown fuses. I had an intermittent short I couldn't find and put a breaker in, and that solved it. I eventually found the short, it was those tail light bulbs with the pig tails that U-Haul sells to cobble a trailer harness together. The pigtail was pinched between the lens and turn signal body and that was the short. Then you can still use the hoe while you search for your part....
