Check power to the terminals when you use the flash to pass.
Put the negative test lead on the battery, as it is a known good ground.
If you have proper voltage, then check your grounds.
The symptoms you describe sound like a loss of ground.

You might check to see if that fuse is unusually warm. Sometimes there's other things going on, but looks like you've got it handled.
