Well, my evening cruise was foiled again!-- About a mile into our ride around the boulevards of Kansas City on a nice night-- started sniffing that "electrical" smell and stopped at a little shopping area-- felt around under the dash and got a little burn on my finger-- the back of the light switch and wire on the dash were burning hot...
tried to feel (its dark) if anything was touching around the dash area but no (more finger burns). Drove it home quickly and check with the flashlight to see a hot slightly melted wire from the ignition to the light switch but nothing obvious.. Anyone had similar prob-- where to start? I've started looking at wiring diagrams, will check the switch, the dimmer switch, etc for bad connections, etc.
Thanks in advance, Pete
