The contacts slide into the plastic molex and clip in. With a tiny screwdriver, good eyes, and some patience you can depress that clip and pull on the wire to slide the contact out. Then you'll notice that the contact is basically one long piece of metal wrapped around and bent into two curls. The metal bars in the fuse block fit between those two curls and that's what makes the circuit. When there's an air gap between the contacts you get an arc and that's what melts the plastic and causes things to flicker on and off. So with the contact out of the molex, slip a screwdriver in from the side of the curls and pry the curls out so they touch each other again. That way when the metal bar in the fuse block is forced between them it will create a snug connection. Also, pick up a can of electric degreaser and a can of dielectric grease from an autoparts store. Use the degreaser and some fine sandpaper to clean all of the contacts up and make sure they're shiny and not tarnished or burnt. After you've reassembled everything smear a layer of the dielectric grease on all of the exposed connections and that will keep the humidity and contaminates out.
