Fuse box

[Phillbert]

Hey guys the fuse box under the bonnet
Can it be changed or is it hard wired to the loom?
The bottom part of mine has been broken and want to replace it, top cover is fine.

Yes it can be done if you are good at pushing non reversible connectors out without damaging them. It's a very tedious job indeed.

If you are able to repair it using Loctite 401, it would be much more feasible I'd say.

Thanks for the reply, yeah i figured it was a pain to do but looking for a glimmer of hope rather than glue

It's a piece of piss , 20 minutes tops.

Pretty sure it's just a matter of undoing the fuses, which have wires that bolt on and then unscrewing the cracked panel and replacing it. The relays push off the long plastic holder easy enough. I replaced mine and I never had to unclip the one way cable lugs.

I guess I wasn't fully comprehending what the damage was in this instance. If it's just the mounts themselves then it's not that much of an issue and can be done easily as suggested above without wiring disassembly having to be done. Sorry for any confusion.

I just went down and had a further inspection and yes, it's just a cover plate at the front of fuses. I thought it was a whole unit that needed replacing. 3 mins to get the old one off, 2 screws and a bit of a wiggle.
