Why does my fuse box keep burning/ melting? I just replaced it 3months ago, and now it shut down and wont start up, it drained my new battery completely. Help me please!!!

This has been discussed heavily over the years; the alternator charge wires, has been a fix for many.

Melted Fusebox Findings and Fix

The fusebox on my 1.8L T new beetle recently melted and warranted a further look. This issue appears to be pretty common among this and other similar VW's so I've decided to share my findings and what I feel will be a long term solution. I agree, the problem is excessive heat at the connection...
