Re: ignition question

If the engine was left on, but not started it could be but its not normal under normal operation. Hot or warm fuses are usually close to popping.

Warm or hot fuse holders usually not good.. I would check to make sure the connections are good..

This usually indicates the fuse isn't making good contact with the holder.
