88 shelby z. Last night I pull the out the healight switch to turn on the lights. Lights pop up, but no dash lights. Go down the road, a friend calls me and tells me that i have no running lights either. So i fiddle with the switch and all is good. I get home and go to push in the switch to turn off the lights....and it's stuck. Didn't make sense. So i beat it back in with intentions of looking at it tomorrow. So about 5 mins ago, i take the switch out and the connecting plug is melted. The wires are fine and are in the correct positions and I believe nothing is touching, but melted none-the-less. The switch itself is sticking because a terminal on the inside (i'm assuming the one that control the dash/tailights), was loose and burnt badly. So I have a few questions.
1. Besides the the switch, should i try to get a new connector? (or should I just break the connector apart and connect everything seperately?)
2. Should I also be looking for a hidden problem? (bad ground, etc)
Thanks
