I often defend Lucas wiring because I find that the complaints are often overblown but, IMO, this is an example where the criticism is called for. It's a poor design. There's really nothing to securely hold the connector firmly onto the switch so they often become a bit loose. Loose fit = high resistance = high heat = melted
