Melting Wires In Handle
Requests for more information
We have the same problem with the handle/switch assembly really getting hot. We have not opened it up to examine the wiring, but we figure it's inadequate wiring or a fragile switch. Are there others out there with this dangerous problem?

Fortunately, if you have a soldering iron, it's a ten-minute fix at most.
The wiring is crap.
Open and remove the handle. It probably requires a t-20 torque screwdriver (star head). You'll see some very scorched connectors. You'll need to pry those off, and solder the wires directly to the switch instead. If you can't solder, take it to an electronics or other repair shop or bribe a friend that does electronics. Good luck!
