Re: [FWDLK] Melting wires

[G Graham <iwlf@YAHOO.COM>]

Unfortunately, one of the same wires has melted again.  Fortunately, we

can
patch this one, without replacing the entire harness.

The area I need suggestions/help on is this:  we are trying to figure
out
where the short is in the system.  Apparently, the voltage regulator is
charging the system at the highest charge since there is a short
somewhere.

I would appreciate any ideas on how to isolate and fix the problem?
Thanks.

I just had a similar problem in my '74 MGB. The choke cable was heating
up and melting the plastic coating. Finally tracked it down to a
missing/broken engine to ground cable. Replace the ground, end of
problem.

Hope this helps.
