Then remove the three crosshead screws that hold the case halves together. There are two thin latches moulded inside each side of one case half, and you'll probably crack them off when parting the halves, but don't worry about that. They are "tell-tales" to reveal tampering, but you're out of battery warranty anyway.

With the top case half off, you'll see the car type inline fuse holder shown as number 6 in this photo, also on my site. Cut away the insulation around the fuse holder, replace the fuse if it's blown and bind the holder with pvc insulating tape. You should have had spare fuses supplied when you got the bike new.

Hello Flecc:
(the title is just my fun Flecc).
I guess Mr. Ching did not mean you Flecc when he said that the inner fuse in a battery is not serviceable by an owner/rider.
Regards
