  Yup, going down the road, car died.  Got under the hood and things 
started smoking!  I managed to unground it before anything serious 
happened.  Wire broke off at the end of the connector.  I was really 
surprised to find it unfused with all the stuff that IS fused and DOESN'T 
have a long spindly wire dangling across a shaking, vibrating engine 
compartment!
