    Hello , New to the site and have some electrical questions on a 379 Pete. Have issues with the passenger headlight..on lowbeam there is no problems, but when you hit the high beams, the right side flickers on and off. Traced the problem to the 10 amp resettable circuit breaker in the fuse panel. My question is How do you remove that circuit breaker for replacement. I found if you tap the button on the breaker , it flickers the lights. Not sure if the center button removes or the whole thing. Any help would be greatly Appreciated. Thanks

    Remove the lower dash panel there are two screws at the lower end of the fuse box remove the screws and lift the fuse box up and rotate there will be two flat blade screws that hold wires to the breaker then use needle nose pliers to depress plastic clips to remove circuit breaker and also disconnect the battery the power wire to the breaker is hot all the time
