is it just a wire that melts constantly,if so that means its grounded out somewhere

x2...... I had that happening and found that my switch wire was pinched in the back. Everytime I would hook up a new wire it would just melt and smoke like yours is doing. Try tracing out the wire and make sure its not pinched somewhere or grounding out on something.
