Hello
This was a first in my experience to have a positive wire melting a positive connector on the battery... I have recently noticed that the positive wire was quite warm after trying to start the engine(had a problem with the OHV), and didn't think anything of it, I tested the positive wire pack to the starting solenoid and have found that if I touch the positive and negative wires to the battery, and touch the positive wire to the starting solenoid and turn the key, I get a spark at the battery. Now my question is it a bad ground to the solenoid, or the solenoid itself(not the best at electrical things), or what?
Thank you for any response...
