so..... my brother borrowed the m1078 to go to work this morning.... and while in route the heater started smoking, and a not so nice orange glow could be seen threw the vents.......- he poured his coffee into the vent, shut off the blower motors, and pulled out the heater breaker, then continued on his way. after pulling apart the face of the heater box, i found, all the wires associated with the heater are fried, including the dash light ones and the light sockets that light up the heater controls.
have any of you guys seen this before? i can say that the spade connectors that are on the blower motor control are crimp on, and don't look factory- but i could be wrong.
and, suprman, do you have a extra heater box right now? i'm not completely done diagnosing how far the problem went to, but am probably going to need all the electrical wiring that is in it.![IMG_3324.jpg IMG_3324.jpg](https://www.steelsoldiers.com/data/attachments/435/435027-67e8d586f44b36195033790f89a97b20.jpg)
