about $3 from the local parts store, buy a new fuse. It's BOLTED in place, so don't go pulling on it! You need to remove the two bolts on each end of the fuse block, pull it up, then pop the covers in the center off and you'll see the 10mm bolts holding it in place. Remove these, install new fuse, bolt it back up, and you're good as new. It's the fuse block located on the drivers side strut tower under the hood, just so you know.
