When the short is there the bulb will glow at full brightness, when the short isn't there it will glow dimly or not at all depending on the load drawn.
This can save you a lot of money at Halfords who must sell the most expensive fuses in the country  |
Ah ... good thinking that man! Halfords are pretty expensive (£1-15 for 3) but in Grantham it is pretty well all we have available. If the problem presists I will construct something for that.
