are the metal contacts inside the plastic housing nice and clean ? do they show any signs of corrosion ?
1st thing i would do is check this and maybe use a small screwdriver to scratch/clean them ?

try removing the fuse first as you may blow it cleaning them with .

I did check this and all seemed nice and clean, that's why I think there may be a bigger issue !
