So a couple weeks ago over thanksgiving break i was home from college, enjoying getting to drive the truck while i was home. I noticed a strange smell coming from under the hood, and sure enough a brittle wire that goes from the battery/ fuel pump to the toggle switch caught fire. So fast forward two weeks later for christmas break and i decided to rewire the whole thing. I wired a ground from the switch, and a wire to the actual fuel pump to the battery. But it is direct wired and i can not control it from the switch? am i missing something?
