4200 fuse box

[Delmonte]

Just noticed the fuse box. It's hanging down at an angle and almost touching battery at one edge. But it seems fairly solid in that position. Doesn't easily want pushing back up, or back.
Surely it's not meant to be like this and should retract somehow?

Mine was the same. I think its because not all batteries are the same height so it needs some wiggle room for when you change the battery.

The moment when you realize it's Italian and not German...comes at a different point for all of us.

Lol tbf that's the first thing i thought. But then that moment came for me when I was 18 and bought my first Alfa.... and found out that the washer bottle was an actual plastic bag.... not a bottle at all...

Didn't actually own a German car until I was about 23... and only then because I wrote off my beloved Lancia lol

Don't think I've ever owned a German car (unless you want to count the Bentley)

Just read in another thread there might be another fuse box? Is there one under the carpet somewhere?
How many fuse boxes do they even have?

From memory there's some in the boot, over the battery, some in the engine bay and some under the passenger carpet.

Could be wrong and my digital manual is downstairs, but that's what I recall

Correct, sir. By the battery, in the floorboard, and in the engine compartment...and relays scattered...
