Mornin Alan, when you state: turned key on started smoking wires stated to melt
If what I think it to be ??? and it smokes when key turned on,,,,,,and the switch itself isnt somehow bad/shorted,,,,,,,,and IF turning the key on sends power to the ignition coil ?? I cant know from here
THERE MUST BE A SHORT or reverse polarity somewhere AFTER the switches output (IGN terminal maybe??) down to the coil. I dont envision the key switch itself as the problem, rather in wiring downstream and after the switch to the coil or wherever else??
You might remove wires that come out of the switch one at a time to find the short or check resistances of the output circuits (such as to coil) to look for a short??
If there armed with a meter and test lamp this wouldn't be hard, but it is hard to diagnose over the net, sorry.....
