Why a battery disconnect switch is important!
This is what remains of my pristine Dodge Brothers DK8, a rare example. (even rarer now I suppose). Attach file:  (143.49 KB)

Ah geez, that really stinks. I hope nobody was hurt. These wood containing bodies can really burn fast.
Is it restorable?

OK, problem resolved. All the bulbs blew at once, hence why i thought it was a fuse of some sort. I was having battery problems (connection and charging) when I was showing the family. Some combination must have caused all the bulbs to blow at once. I now have installed a new battery and I look forward to its maiden voyage soon, even at night!
Thanks for everyones help. Tom Laferriere

Hope your maiden voyage is trouble-free.
As to all bulbs blowing at once, I told you that story of how that happens and how I did it once as a kid - stupid stunt.
