Consumer very seldom uses the air because of not being able to tolerate the cold. On unbearable days consumer does use the air conditioner. This is how consumer came acroos the problem. Consumer put in a new switch. It still gets hot. The new fuse links the connector wire to the switch which somewhat melted. The link stopped it from catching on fire.”
