Good day everyone-

Been reading through the the threads and I think I have my course of action planned out, but I'd like some confirmation that I'm understanding what I'm reading. I bought this car a couple months ago as my next project. All fuses were changed out to MB ceramic.

Problem:
Fuse #8 had melted away the contact points in the fuse box.

Solution:
Thinking I'll install the MB external fuse mod for the blower. It seems like I can unfasten the fuse box and tilt it fwd to access the back and do the connections. Is this actually how it will happen?

Also, the A/C push-button controls do not stay in when pushed. With #8 fuse out, is this why the defrost button will not catch and stay down. My first thought was I needed to find a new push button assembly, but after fixing the fuse box will this fix that problem?

Any comments are greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Lance-
