In looking over all the wires running to/from/around the coil, there is one 10 GA labeled 'Solenoid Pwr' (the car has an E-Z Wiring harness in it) that goes to the positive battery cable side of the solenoid (presumably from the fuse box). At the solenoid end of it is a 2 - 3 inch piece of 14 GA wire labled 'Fusable Link'. The main 'Solenoid Pwr' wire and the 'Fusable Link' are connected together with a push together clip (?? don't know what else to call it ??). The plastic cover/retainer around this clip is somewhat melted and the inside of both sides is fried. Both wires themselves look fine.

Any clues? I did just have to replace the solenoid due to the starter never shutting off. Previous to that I replaced the ignition swicth, thinking that was the cause of the starter issue. Other than those two items, nothing else in the wiring has been touched since I got the car 3 1/2 months ago, and it was trouble free until the starter problem. Would this melted/burned connection prevent power from getting to the coil properly? As near as I can tell, there is nothing wrong with the 'Coil POS' wire.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Thanks,
