[DML] Re: wrong terminal ends

["Chris Parnham" <chrisparnham@xxxx>]

One of our members had an engine bay fire due to that light...the switch
stuck on, the engine was very hot, the light cover melted and dripped down
onto the exhaust, next trip out it all set fire! We always pull one wire off
the switch, if you do need it at night it's very easy to put back on.
