Brammo Empulse / won't charge -- problem solved, and new Bay Area service center.

Dash lights up but does not draw current, according to the readout. This happened at my work, where there are several Level II chargers in the garage, so I tried a few of them, and then tried to charge at home off Level I, always with the same result.
So my first question is an extremely basic one. When I go to check the fuses, I notice they're not like other fuses I've seen that are transparent so that a blown fuse is visually evident. These are opaque. How do you know if it's blown? I just haven't encountered this before. The 3 charging fuses all appear the same visually.
If it's not a fuse, then I've got a big problem, because Scuderia no longer does Empulse-specific work and I doubt there's anyone else in the Bay Area now that does. I suppose I can get on the phone with Polaris and try to talk to someone who will look at the data. But this could turn into a huge inconvenience.
On the positive side, I'll get more riding time on my Nine T.
