If this "fuse" is at the pilot light, then you have a Thermopile, not a thermocouple. They are harder to find since there a not a lot of domestic units with them so most places do not stock them. A good gas control supplier will have them. : Terry I have a free standing gas heater. My pilot light lights but my burner doesn't burn. : The thermocoupler is presently being replace. (once I find it) This coupler has a fuse of some type on it, : unusually and it is hard to find. Am I looking in the right area to replace or do I need to look at something : else. Of course big brother came in with his macho came and broke the thermocoupler fuse. So I have to : replace it anyway. : P.S. Bye the way do you know where I can get a thermocoupler with a fuse or should I say plug.
