WARNING: Battery Charge Point - Shorting/melting

[rpa.janwell]

I expect Mark will post on the Tuscan Forum, but for information: on arrival at a motor show in NE Scotland this morning, one of the bolts in the battery tray had worn through the housing on the charging point causing it to short out.

Result, lots of smoke, plenty of heat, and what could best be described as a potentially serious "Near Miss".
Plenty of fire extinguishers etc on hand, wheel removed and battery compartment opened, problem sorted.

Worth having a look, check for any wear. This was on an early Tuscan.
