Hi my jcb 3cx 1997 started smoking in the cab. I pulled back the foam where the wiper motor is and the wires had melted. Thought I'd sussed it but then started from dashboard and then from the little alert dash In front of steering wheel. So quickly disconnected the battery. Whilst fighting fires I found the handbrake cable to be glowing red hot even though the cable doesn't work.
Anybody know what could of caused the whole electrics and handbrake cable to heat up and melt? It's also melted some pipe for the brake fluid or power steering fluid not too sure. Apart from the odd oil leak she's been fine no starting issues etc.
Any info would be much appreciated.
