I was under my Dolphin yesterday changing the oil when I noticed the batt. cable was pinched between the frame and the duraframe. It was mashed flat and I am lucky it didn't short out or it could have set fire to the MH. I had to use a cut off gringer and cut a corner off the duraframe to get it out. I wraped it good with insulating tape at that corner to keep it from wearing threw. Just something to look at next time your under your MH.

Thank you for sharing your observation. You surely prevented a situation that could have manifest as a fire as some point in time since there would not have been any fusing preceding the pinch.
