I'm melting the red and yellow wire on my '89 at my main relay. After a bit of investigation thru diagrams, I see its an ABS power wire that leads to the ABS pump and control box.
This is the second engine harness I put in.
First one burnt thru all the way to the connector closest to the firewall near the fusebox in pin 20 I believe it was which lead to a ground under the dash. The car wouldn't start, it would just smoke from that wire. Thought it was just a harness issue so I replaced with a new one and having same issue. (And yes I replaced the burnt thru wire after the connector)
Don't know how to tackle the situation from here considering I didn't touch anything ABS related besides slightly move the pump to clean the engine bay. Nothing enough to alter any of the wiring IMO.
When attempting to start the car again with the new harness, same exact wire got real hot and started smoking so I just disconnected the battery and haven't touched it since.
I'm new to electrical issues so please bare with me and thanks in advance !
