    Hi;

    Well I own a Kenworth T800 and im facing some problems with the fuse box. Someone will have a video or pictorial DIY of how to get the fuse box out. Mine is very corroded with rust. I need to remove a few wires to connect them outside and connect a single fuse.

    Thanks

    Man, I am in the exact same boat as you I have a 1999 Kenworth T 800 and my parking lights relay is eroded and shorted out something back there. I read online all I had to do was remove the box from the firewall to access behind the fuse panel, but now I just have a removed fire wall box with a fuse panel I still cant get out! Please somebody help!

    There should be screws holding the panel into the box on the fuse/relay side. the plugs on the outside of the fuse box have locks or barbs that you push in to push them through. Kenworth sells repair kits for the individual sections of the fuse box.
