melted fuse

[speedmaster]

I noticed a melted fuse in my fuse box under my hood. when i tried to replace the fuse i tried inserting another one in and it sparked and damaged the new fuse, is this a sort in the fuse holding how do i go about fixing this? i'm afraid i couldn't find a toyota auto parts online (http://www.toyautoparts.com/), or any other replacement. thanks

What's the fuse for and is that part operating properly? Fuses blow for a reason, they definitely melt for a reason too, you need to track down the issue and have it resolved, car fires are awesome in theory, but they are never awesome when you back up traffic on half of Atlanta's drive home as you watch your car barbecue.
