Threads for main fuse dropped into my fuse box
After finding my main fuse was blown, I took it out and went to replace it. One bolt went in fine, but the other kinda rattled around. Turns out, the nut/tappet on the other side dropped into the fusebox. I can see it rattled around down there, but how the hell am I supposed to get it out?
I tried a magnetic screwdriver, side there’s no room for a traditional magnet. I’ve taken apart the “pole” the battery cables go to to try give myself more space, but ut don’t do a whole lot.
Has anyone else somehow encountered this? Sorry for no photos, I live about 15 minutes away from the car and didn’t think of grabbing a photo at the time.

the piece that the fuses and relays are mounted on lifts up enough to get in there, but is restrained from lifting fully out by the wiring to the underside of it as dannobre explained
if you get the tabs pulled back far enough to release it for lifting up all of that will become obvious …
