Default how to take apart fuse box? 2 replace cable

hi... one of my battery cable is corroided and i think that might cause my car to flick or shut off... what i think is that the alternator have to push enough power to power teh whole car.. but when it get to certain voltage, it cause the system to shut down.. kinda weird but seem like the car is more in electronics...

everytime i press on the brake or the cooling fan come on... anything.. its flicks... and the voltage drop a little and goes back up to 14v

my problem is that one cable from positive side connect to the starter and the other cable connect to the fuse box right by the battery.... i need to replace that cable.. but somehow i have to tear apart teh box... anyone know what teh easy way to take that box apart so i can replace it? ,.. i am replacing the battery too.... will check teh alternator once done to make sure.... please let me know.. thankz

It shouldn't be that hard i would think, just make sure you disconnect the battery first.
