So I shut off the car when I got home and the fuel pumps kept on running. I popped the trunk, unmounted the fuel pump relay assembly and took a look, and found this:
This looks to be 10 gauge wire provided by JPC so it's really confusing why it would be getting hot enough to melt the cover of the wires and let them short. Once I pulled them apart everything ran normally. The box is fed by 3 feet of 4 gauge directly from the battery.
The only other thing I'll mention is when I pulled the cover off the relay assembly one of the relays just fell out like it was hardly plugged in. Maybe this is the culprit (higher resistance on that circuit). There is not much holding these relays in besides a little tension.
Any ideas other ideas since I don't want to burn the car down?
