80 amp alternator fuse

While driving in the rain I blew the 80 amp alt fuse under the hood. Any causes? Any ideas? I'm at a gas station broke down so any ideas would help....

A short caused by the rain? Check for a bare wire that may have arced.

Local auto parts store will have the fuse. It typically requires that the fuse box be separated as that fuse is bolted in from the side. There are threads around here about it.

That white wire may be a fusible link also.....Toyota for that.
