Default Mazda 2 2005 electrical problem

I have a Mazda 2

With an electrical problem

The car is draining the battery

Try jumping it The only thing that came in with the windscreen wipers.

Brought a new battery

Still only windscreen wipers

Checked all fuses in the car and they seem okay

Try to remove hundred amp main fuse under the bonnet and it broke

Leaving the two pins in place

Manage to get part of the fuse box out to get to the screw which holds the white cable to one side of 100 amp fuse



Struggling to get the other side with the black wire off



Anybody? Have any ideas either to get fuse box out or other side of fuse out

Looked on internet no answers

Thanks

There must be a way to get the legs for the 100amp fuse out with out removing fuse box in engine bay

As you cases the legs of fuse stuck

The closest leg had screw and a 10mm sock removed Not the back I think has some kind of clip But not sure

Update
managed to get the legs of the old 100a fuse out
wasnt easy

had to turn fuse box up side down
and there is another screw holding it on
see pics

after a couple hours struggle it is done

but the car has the same symptom it had before I damaged the fuse taking it ou

which is when I put the ignition on the windshield wipers cone on and the Speedo and tachometer
goes from left to right over to the right then back

still no central locking lights radio ect

Any ideas

thanks
