The passenger compartment climate control blower motor circuit suffered a severe thermal overload. The terminal overheated, shorted out, and physically melted the primary engine wiring harness (Part #91400-L0051) inside the main fuse block connector housing while the vehicle was operating. This caused an immediate smoke/fire hazard in the cabin and a total loss of window defogging and climate control functionality. This structural breakdown is directly tied to the electrical failures documented in Hyundai TSB #WTY037 / 25-EE-002H.
Fuse for A/C was blown, caught on fire, and melted components.
