As a my matter of curiosity, why did you consider it necessary to remove the fuse if the dealer had replaced the failed part? Did you fear the replacement part would be just as vulnerable to failure as the original part?

Even though my car was still under warranty and saved me from paying $500. I didn't want to go through the hassle of it again. When i had it replaced it took about a month since the part was on back-order so that pissed me off. Taking out the fuse takes all the worrying away.
