How to open fuse box on 2006 SRT-10

[ohiosrt10]

Ok.. I realize it really can't be as hard as I'm making it, however, I can't seem to get the fuse box open under the hood of my 2006 SRT-10. I am able to "remove" the entire box by pushing on the fittings on each side and lift it out, however, I can't seem to find a way to simply OPEN it up! The bottom side of the fuse box has two obvious latches which I have disengaged, but it won't flip up. Are there additional latches for allow it to open besides the two on the bottom? What am I missing? :dontknow: Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I don't want to get out the heavy metal tools to try to force it...

I'm not looking at it but I'm pretty sure there's just two tabs down on the engine side that you push and it flips open.

I've push both of them down but the top doesn't want to flip up easily. I don't want to break anything!

So I heard. Lol. Maybe one of the guys with an '06 can post a quick video?

 

[ohiosrt10]

Still looking...

Thanks for taking the time to post a quick video! It may not have been helpful to me on the '06, but someone else may need to see it sometime.

If someone can post a short video showing how to open up the '06 fuse box, I would definitely appreciate it. Thanks in advance!

Sounds like yours may need a little more persuasion?

Can you explain by what you mean by "pull them in"? They appear to be snaps which I push "down" and that doesn't seem to release them or allow me to open the box. Am I moving them in the wrong direction somehow? Thanks again for taking the time to respond!

Can you post a quick video of what you are doing, so the OP can see?

On my way to work now, The tabs just pinch back to the box and it lifts right up. You may just be a little seized up.
