Depends. This a is a module and the fuse you pull may impact other circuits. But who knows these days.
I was being sarcastic.
Clearly there’s no fuse in the fusebox, and if there is, it should have been backed up with a fusible link in the affected harness itself of a much lower rating to guard against the problem.
It’s idiot engineering. In my circle we discuss this at my prodding. It’s a pet theory of mine that when engineers retire, so does the bulk of their experience, resulting in such problems.
It is NOT isolated to any one industry.
