Is this the type of fuse you are looking for?

You should have a battery fuseable link in line with the chassis battery Tom.

seems like it would take a massive short to burn that fuse up.

Here is a picture of the fuse. It is a 90 amp push button type

I have a couple of those. One is on the inverter, and another is back in the engine compartment. They can be reset. Had to reset the inverter one once.

Although it is not a direct replacement, it looks like the Bussman Series 18X Hi-amp circuit breaker would work if your existing breaker will not reset.

Joseph, are you sure that the breaker is defective. A short in the circuit would cause the breaker to open and attempting to reset it would result in an instantaneous trip again. That is probably not an inexpensive breaker so I would do some testing first, although you may already have done that.

I suggest disconnecting the input and try resetting the breaker before replacing.
