17 is scorched and gone, probably fan bearing lube issue, fan didn't turn, burned fuse. So note that. Possibly needs fan resistor coil too. Later we deal with that stuff.

Close ups of all of panel are needed for better review. Remove lower wood --- close ups of plugs are needed too. +.

Want to look at back of panel, too, picking thru wires, looking for shorts or cross melts. Not common, but now is the time to reveal them and write them down on a pad. Time saver.

Sharp pictures please, we are old men here.
Ok I will remove the lower wood and get some better focus. Right now the car is sitting in my "production line" so I will take some more pictures and start gathering up a plan. I have set aside a work area on a covered concrete pad outside. I plan on getting to things when the weather breaks.

Thank you again everyone for the advice and steering.
