Im not being funny mate but melted fuse boxes and are only the problem you can see and yes they can be changed. Its the problems you can't see. The car is an old car (no disrespect) and cable breaks down adding to this a load of messers modifying it to a poor standard..... One result Fire
Better buy a fire extinguisher
so what are you suggesting doing? as in the real world no one is going to test the resistance of each individual wire on the loom to test to see if its deteriorated so all you can do is fisically inspect it to the best of your ability,i personally dont no of any rst owner that would fork out for a specialist to build them a new loom, so what else can you do?
not once did he say he required any additional current carrying capacity on any of the circuit
