[QUOTE="ThomasG, post: 7496301, member: 570522"] O ****. Could this happen from jump starting? I had to jump start the **** out of my car this morning cause I left my lights on. Just read this on Wiki... Cranking current drawn through light-gauge cables in this way will damage them by overheating; electrical resistance of a smaller wire is higher than that of a larger wire, and resistance dissipates electrical energy into heat.
