fm modulator?

Post by 01mercLS »

ok so i got this fm modulator, came with the fm modulator and a swtich. Now my problem is when i hooked it up, and i flipped the switch it burned up and melted. not sure why it did, but im pretty sure i had it hook right. could it be possible 2 the 2 wires hook up on the switch touched and melted it or what? or could there be something that I did wrong? red to battery, and black wire ground to chassis of car, and wired the switch it had a gray wire and black wire, hooked gray up with red, and black with black. I dont understand how it burned up like that. Im guessing the 2 wires that were soldered to the switch touched, and it melted. Is that possible? Thanks.
