Default Saph Fusebox
My fan fuse and the area round it have been melted - I'll be rewiring the fans ASAP, but have a couple of questions about the fusebox and how I should repair it.

1) How do they come apart?
2) Is it possible to repair the wiring underneath or is is mega fiddly?


Cheers!

Neil.

The best bet is to forget about the fusebox, just discard and insulate the wiring already there, put in a new min loom and relay/fuse for the fans.

Doubt I'll get away with that - I really need to strip and inspect the fusebox as it's started to blow fuses close to the fan fuse now.

Cool - will pull it out and have a look then.

Has anybody had much success repairing these?

Cheers
