Why do you have foil wrapped fuses? Seems to me that could cause excessive current flow. Was the wire that got melted part of that circuit?
The fuses were wrapped in foil when I got the truck. I am a service mechanic on equipment such as pressure washers, parts washers and compressors. Seen a few places where they use grade 8 bolts as a fuse for the heating elements, one had a set of pliers clamped as a fuse. Some crazy stuff out there.
I was just posting what I saw, looking for advice to what I need to look for. I guess I need to redo the wiring, new fuses, fuse block, etc. Then see what the issues may have been.
Been a busy spring weekend, couldn't even touch my truck. One of the family members moved here for better work in the oilfields, he said he wants to help on my truck which would be awesome.
