THE BATTERY WIRING HARNESS WAS DEFECTIVE. WIRES LEADING FROM THE POSITIVE BATTERY TERMINAL TO AND FROM THE MAIN FUSE HOLDER WERE TOO SMALL GAUGE, CAUSING THEM TO BECOME VERY HOT TO THE POINT, AND INSULATION MELTED. WIRES WERE ABLE TO CONTACT EACH OTHER AND OTHER METAL OBJECTS, CREATING A FIRE HAZARD. IN MY CASE, THE MAIN FUSE WAS COMPLETELY BYPASSED. THE MAIN FUSE SOCKET WAS TOO SMALL FOR THIS USAGE AND BECAME VERY HOT.*AK
