We had a saying in the Cruise Missile Reliability Group regarding that type of event.
" Don't forget to change the brown ones too". As often times a repair tech would change all the blackened components that actually torched but neglect to replace the ones that you refer to. It only takes a few times for most to learn.
A totally burned up vehicle is a nasty sight.

Now that you've effectively turned copper wire into a toaster element it's current carrying capacity is at least halved not to mention the possibility of now bare wire(s). The likelihood of having a reoccurrence is just a matter of time. At least carry an extinguisher AT ALL TIMES.
You've just released an advanced form of Lucas smoke, Lucas FIRE!
(Really hard to find that in bottle stock......not to mention the shipping is outrageously expensive. A decent surrogate would be a Patio Torch, and as an added bonus it keeps mosquitos away for many hours......)
(Sorry, had to do it Danny Lee, had to.)
