As you may remember from my thread about no turn signals, no cruise control, i started looking further. After replacing a couple blown fuses in the outside fuse box, I found our little friends (mice) had built a nest behind the fuse panel. is it possible to remove the panel so I can check it more thoroughly. I have tried a mirror and compressed air to blow out any grass straw, p--p or others.

Once had a family living in my air filter housing. Made a cool whistle sound every time I gave it gas! Those critters will get into, and eat everything. Just remember to use a mask if you blow out, or wipe up their droppings. You don't want the dreaded Hanta Virus!

Wet it to keep the dust down when you clean it. Then use a HEPA Vac to finish. Best to error on the side of safety. Good luck

Finhawk has the best safety advise. After it is clean removing or at least loosening and moving the box depends more on how much wire your manufacturer left you. This is something that may vary from coach to coach. A visual inspection of each wire is the best but whether you can do it is questionable.

I have a couple of friends, Amber and Alex, who live with me,, Their job is mouse .... Deterrents.
They are very good at it.. Though I'm sure they would rather the mice drop by for dinner... or is that AS dinner?
