HOW TO: Remove Engine Fuse Box Cover / Lid / Outer Casing

[jostler]

Hi Guys,

The horn seems to have stopped working in my '13 plate, Grand C-Max Titanium X.

I was going to try replacing the fuse first, which the car manual suggests is in the Engine Fuse Box, located under the bonnet, on the passenger side.

Now I've located it, I can't seem to get the cover / lid / outer casing off, to gain access to the fuse box itself. The case seems to move more easily when I lift it from the back (the side nearest the windscreen). Likewise, I've tried prying / pushing in, what looks like a little latch on the front side of the cover, whilst pushing the back of the casing towards me, and upwards, at the same time. Unfortunately, the latch won't release, and I don't want to force it, for fear of snapping it off.

Is there a knack to getting the cover off? Any idea which side the hinge resides on?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Joe
