In a worse case senerio, the power to the coil shorts also to the by now bare spots of the AAR wire and the bare spots of the coil + and you have unfused power to ground = major smoke until you turn off the key switch, Provided that the key switch contacts have not melted together, if that happens, then you must remove the battery cable to stop the electrical fire. If that happens, you could have wire melt damage into the main wiring harness. $$$$ A very good reason to fuse that AAR!!!
