    Buy yourself a little circuit tester or DVOM and test it from the fuse side. Much easier.

    If you lost multiple things, it's most likely a plug in connector on the wiring harness. Very seldom do you have fuse block problems. If you did, you would see signs like plastic that got hot, etc.

    What have you lost?

    The panel comes out after the power distribution box is removed from firewall. Takes about a hour. Once you get the windshield washer bottle mount and air intake pipe out of your way you can see how it is held to the firewall. You can order all the wire connectors from KW to fix rotted off ends. don't forget to pull panel left of dash there are 4 plugs there you can't see from below dash. With some skill and patience you can save a lot of money on this job.
     
    ptours93 Thanks this.

    There should be some screws on the fuse/relay side that have to come out then there are two plugs on the outside with latches or barbs you push in and a round power plug that have to be pushed into the box then the works comes out.
