So, I get home from a T on Saturday and plug in my Minn Kota 2 bank charger and shortly after notice smoke coming from the battery compartment. Find Charger wires to batteries are so hot the fuses are red and burning. I unplugged the charger, and the wires are a little melted and the fuse holders are shot. So, the question is I keep my throw cushion in the battery compartment on top of my trolling batteries and am wondering if this could have possibly caused a short or is my charger done???Never noticed an issue with this before.
Thanks
