No, read your post. You blamed it on a loose connection as well as talking about blowing fuses. Not trying to **** in your punch bowl, just trying to help another out.

If the connection is loose you raise the resistace which pulls more amps....Just a little electrical lesson.
Raised resistance = increased heat at the point the resistance is raised, which in this instance was a loose connection resulting in a melted plug. I was also trying to help another by pointing out the simple problems most people will overlook because it has to be a MAJOR problem since its on a Harley.

Thats correct, and if that was actually what you said I wouldn't have commented.
