    If only one section of wire is getting hot that can happen if the connection at either end is poor i.e. switch or bullet connections. Voltage is lost there, which creates heat in the resistance, and that will travel down the wire. That would result in a lower voltage at the 'load' end of the wire, and everywhere downstream of there, than at the 'source' end.

    Ha ha. Yep, I'm afraid it's specsavers for you Guy. 😅😅.

    Can you imagine?

    Paul thanks for your comments. I haven't had time to check out all your suggestions out . I did find the 4 way connector under the dash it seems to be fine with only the ignition white getting hot. When I had this problem before I found the 4 connector you mentioned in the Engine Bay, it did have a rusted out insert. I replaced that and cleaned connectors and thought that had solved the problem un...
