I have a problem with badly corroded terminals in a 70 fuse block--but I have another that is very clean so I'd like to replace the bad one with it.
Has anyone here tackled that job? Looks tedious but doable. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Fuse Block
Have not done this on a toro but as a marine electrician and general tinkerer I usually tape both blocks together and transfer one wire at a time from the old to the new.
You may need a specialty tool to remove the connectors depending on the type used, Molex, Spade, Etc.
Be careful and methodical, repair any questionable wire or connectors while you go and, of course be sure there is no power to the block when you are swapping wires!

Re: Fuse Block
Thanks for the reply...I have another I can practice on and learn some tricks before I ruin my back changing it out.
