one of the pins for my blower motor fuse (#17) is either gone or fallen into the box... is there a way to remove the box to repair this?

the one by the driver's door? It comes out, but the only one I took out came when I pulled the whole dash out while parting. Don't recall details. Got an FSM? If not, money well spent.

I didn't find it in the FSM.
most are just wiring diagrams.

maybe under body as it's part of the dash?

I'd unscrew the bottom of the dash and start looking how it's put together.... It only took me 30 min to rip the whole dash out....but then again I wasn't putting back together anytime soon What a Face

the closest thing I've found is 8C-21... it's about removing the headlight switch...

there is a locking tab you simply push on and it comes out:

fantastic.
now, is there a way to pull that metal plate out without removing the dash?

My problem was actually water ingress into the car that killed the blower. but this is great info. thanks

The bolts holding the dash together, are shared with that bracket.
In theory you could remove the bolts and wiggle it out, but....Im not sure.

You don't need to get it out to remove the fuse box though.

in this case, would you be able to drop the fusebox to the floor to do repairs? or is there still going to be a lot of dash removal to accommodate?

No, but you'll be able to get the rear locking tab out so you can remove terminals.
You're not getting the box down more than a few inches.
