2003 Lexus RX 300. Fuse No. 47 in owner's manual blown.
I have a blown fuse - No. 47 in owner's manual. A 140 amp cartridge type.

I can't get in out of the socket. I'm breaking it up trying to get it out. Is there a secret to getting the fuse out?

Its probably bolted and you have to remove the box to get at it-

Fuses that big are usually for the generator and are bolted in. Look for two bolts on the sides.
