Title: connector at fuse block
Post by: 68bird on October 02, 2014, 01:00:17 pm

New to forum. I have an 81 K30, that I am trying to put plow lights on. I can not get the locks to release so I can pull the connector from the fuse block. I don't want to break anything, so any advise would be great. Thanks in advance.

The plastic standoffs might be caked with dust causing them to bind.  There are two screws that retain the fuse block and bulkhead connector to the firewall plus two plastic clips (hooks, locks) that retain the fuse block to the bulkhead connector.  The clips are located kitty-corner across the fuse block.  Remove the two screws then pry the clips outward slightly and pull the fuse block away from the bulkhead connector.

Thank you! I did not see the screws.
