The fusible link is between the starter and alternator. It protects the alternator. If the link melting, the wire or the alternator is grounded.

A melted fusible link should not prevent the engine from starting. It will prevent the recharge of the battery and turn on the dash light.

Ok...with a burnt fuse...there is zero power to the car...nothing happens at all when the key is turned...no lights no nothing.
