[QUOTE="AnglerC, post: 416994, member: 21000"] Well... Today was stressful... I learned some very vital life lessons when it comes to 12 volts. I would post pictures but the smoke that came out of the switch panel was gone before I could get my camera out plus I was busy trying to put out the fire. I connected my battery and flipped the master switch. That's when things started smoking and melting and cracking a popping. In the end I burned the insulation off the main lead from the battery to the panel and melted the terminals out of the switch. So I spent the day trouble shooting what wire I got crossed the shorted the whole system. Then it was repair and replace everything I burned up. Long day... I'm going to go have some beers now.
