So the fuse 11 short has been found and fixed.

Indeed it was the wire leaving the floor, over the tranny, and to the solenoid connector. A small section (1/2 cm) of the insulation just rubbed off where it rests in the tranny edge and obviously grounded itself.

I must though, in comparision to others' observations, my wire was 100% good. absolutely no insulation cracking anywhere.

Repair was done by using a wider piece of insulation from junk wire I had, spliced it lengthwise in a spiral fashion, and spun it onto my OD wire. I then put tire wraps at the ends to keep it there. Looks good and long lasting.

Thanks to ALL!
