Yes indeed, that video sheds some light on these issues, and gives me hope that it might be possible to replace the EME fuse. (The dealer didn't indicate that he could replace it--maybe they just avoid delving down at that level..?)
I really appreciate your advice for troubleshooting it further. I will raise some of those questions to my home dealer (or perhaps some other EV-capable shop) next week.
In the meantime I got the car back and started driving home to Texas. The electric drive did seem to stop working during the heat of the day, but started working again when things cooled down. I presume that's the battery shutting down due to lack of cooling.
Another background note which may or may not be relevant is that I'd been having an issue for a year or more where the electric drive shuts off intermittently for no good reason, saying "Too much power required" when it really shouldn't (i.e. on flat ground without acceleration).
