That's not rust, that's Patina.
If it don't rain, I'll be there.

Hans you need a tiny screwdriver and pretty thin. It slips into the plug in end of the connector and will release a spring clip that is part of each connector. You can look up there to see which side it is on and just slightly push the connector in from the wire side, then insert the screwdriver and then pull each connector out with the wire.

I like it.

Finally got the old fuse box out.

I will not point any fingers at PO's Some day I will be one.

It is now a RATS nest of wires.

Tomorrow I begin the install of a newer fused box.
