I believe if it was a loose connection that light would go on and off. It stays on and doesn’t get any brighter like the other ones, when I pull them. The fridge and furnace would do the same. Maybe someone has experienced this before. I can’t be the only one. I could pull out the board.

It could be the board. The LED is designed to light up when there is an open circuit (fuse is blown or open). You don't say, or I missed if the LED in question gets brighter when you remove the fuse on that circuit. A higher resistance like a compromised fuse, loose wire connection, poor solder joint on the board would / could result in what you are seeing. You replaced the fuse with no change so rule that out for now. Next undo the wires at the terminal strip and reinsert making sure the insulation is stripped back enough to fully insert the wire, usually 3/8 - 1/2". After that you would need to inspect the board. Using an air duster can on solder connections is a way to check poor solder joints. The cold air from the can contracts the material on the board and usually temporarily makes a connection.

False blown fuse indicator
I did move wire 3 to an open fuse and it worked correctly, no red light. It’s not a short circuit with the wire. I emailed WFCO we’ll see what they say. The light does get brighter when removed. Also with the wire out the red indicator stays on. The board is like $30 online not sure if it’s worth replacing? Thanks
