removing main 30 amp fuse

[tlh]

sort of a dumb question, but i was trying to remove the main 30 amp fuse and it wasn't clear to me how to access it (even after looking at owners manual).  looked like you needed to unplug the electrical connector for the starter relay and generally remove a bunch of other stuff to be able to remove the cap covering the fuse.

i got a feeling i am missing something and that it is actually very simple.  can someone give me some pointers and maybe post a pic?  thanks!

next to the vertical row of small fuses.  Behind where two large wires connect to the start relay.  If your purpose is to disconnect all power, just take the red wire off the batter andcover the battery terminal with insulating material.

I made you a crappy little video.  If you wait an hour it will be uploaded.

I'm having some issues with my contour hd and am trying to work on it hence the video.

It would be a good idea to disconnect the battery as well.

It should be fairly easy from the video to figure out what you need.  If you push both release clips and the socket will not come off you may need to gently pry up on the bottom of the  socket.  The contacts may be corroded and not able to release.

I just went back and realized that you can pull the relay and socket out of the rubber boot it sits in without a problem.  So if the socket is corroded on you could give that a try as well

Some pics.








Place some dielectric grease on the socket and blades when done.

Hope this helps.

Thank!  that clears it up.  I didn't realize the fuse cover and relay connection where one in the same cover and i was stumped on how to get the fuse exposed w/out removing all the connectors. i see now that you can't.  thanks for the great tutorial.
