Default Remove Fuse Block

2007 Fatboy - Anyone know how to remove the fuse block?

I need to install to new fuse terminals (for an aux. device) and for the life of me I can't figure out to to release fuse block to get to the bottom to slide in the new fuse terminal.

Any help appreciated.
Pulling hair out!!!

did a search in the 2007 manual, only place where removal of fuse block is mentioned is in the removal of oil tank section.

Hopefully it helps you out. They make it sound simple, don't know if it is simple those 2 bolts. Never have had mine out.

Trust me, its not as simple as removing those two bolts. There are a couple locking tabs, but real PIA to get those to bend properly. I am still trying to get this accomplished. Will keep you posted.

+1...I removed the 2 bolts and tried to release those locking tabs, but gave up. I did not have to remove them, I was just checking my wires for a "short".

Be patient, looks like they would be easy to break. I would cut off all the wire ties holding the harness together to give you more room to work with!

Good Luck.

Ended up getting to the bottom of the fuse block without having to remove it. Was able to insert my new fuse block terminals. Not an easy thing to do, but patience will go a long way.
