Default Engine Compartment Fuses

Greetings,

I own a 2000 S40. Recently, the power to the remote keyless entry, glove compartment, trunk, etc. went out. I looked in my owners manual and found that I needed to replace fuse #5 in the engine compartment fuse box. I could not remove the fuse because there is a yellow encasing around fuse #5,#6, and #7. Can I remove this casing or do I have to bring it back to the dealer?

Thanks in advance.

Problem solved. Apparently the box doesn't come completely off. I couldn't pull it up with my fingers and used a screwdriver as a lever to edge the yellow box upward. When I performed this action, I was able to remove the fuse. Thanks.

Reggie,

I also have a 2000 S40 and ran into the same problem. Can you tell me a little more on how you removed the yellow casing? I used a small screw drive on both sides to pull out the yellow case that holds the 3 fuses but it is not really pulling.

I was also told that I need to get the radio code known as it gets erased when the yellow casing is pulled out. How did you get that done?

Would appreciate your help.

Thanks.

-Tim
