I have a 99 force 75 hp. Thing was running like a dream then out of no where I blew a fuse, no biggie right? So I put in a new fuse and blew it again. (Did this 5 or 6 times). So I got a new key ignition (I needed a new one anyway) didn't fix the problem. Ran voltage tests all over and was good. Then I ran continuity tests on the starter and starter solenoid. Solenoid was bad so I went to oreilleys and got a new one. Installed it and it worked. Well, except for the fact that the wire hooked up to the "I" primary terminal totally melted out and smoked like crazy. So I cut out the bad spots in the wire, spliced in a new wire with gold plated connections and cleaned all other connection points, put it all back together and the same thing happened. Any advice would be wonderful!
