heath i know this is kinda off topic, but congrats on the sc build bro. can you post some pics or do up a vid? also hope ya find out what the problem is.

 

Too small of a wire gauge, too big of a fuse

 

or a short

 

pretty much what Josh has said, go down in fuse size. Also check ground spots and make sure you have a good ground and your not shorting to ground.

 

Fuse size was 10 my boost gauge was sent in to aem to get replaced so i taped up the wires to reuse them when i got my new one so there was no power rven to that wire could it have still grounded out and csused that

 

You taped up the wires? So they were still connected to power. If the power wire grounded out, it can arc and cause a lot of heat, lighting the wire on fire

 

You have a short to ground on the gauge wire. A smaller fuse would have blown first and kept the wire from burning up.

 

You should have pulled the fuse when you disconnected the boost gauge....

 

I figured tsping the wires up would have been fine
