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-
I had one of these melted 300D fuseboxes a few years ago where I was able to pull & flip the box far enough to transfer the blower wiring from the melted section to one of the pairs of unused fuse contacts. Can't say about the pushbutton control.

Happy Motoring, Mark
