Ted, clip off a short piece of the black or brown wire to verify that it is in fact wire. I got it stuck in my head that those are vacuum lines that go to the AC control head. Book shows 4 vacuum lines; black, brown, blue, and green.

At about 500x magnification, it now appears that the brown and black "wires" are actually plastic vac. lines. They appear to be melted at the ends that are hanging.
The blue wire is definitely a wire...I can see the copper wire inside, and the blue wire is going into the scotch-lock connector.
It appears that the scotch-lock connector is melted, also. It seems as tho whatever system/component that the bue wire is part of has created a short, or overload on the wire, and melted the plastic vac. lines that run next to it.
More anatomy studies are required. Unfortunately, we will need to put the patient in a drug-induced coma, for her own good. Please remove the negative battery cable from the pacemaker until we have a cure. We don't want the patient to have a seizure while waiting for medications...Adams' Apple2006-10-04 08:53:10

"Administrator Wartell....Administrator Wartell....the owners are complying with Dr. Adams' request to disconnect the negative cable, and they're going to take a closer look at the questionable wires/vacuum lines themselves as well...but they did have some confidential questions for you..."

"They've asked, 'Do Dr. Adams' hands always shake like that?'...and they also wanted to know why nurse Micki's makeup is all smudged...plus, they asked if the waiting room coffee is always this stale--and if we can get some reading material in there that's a little newer than that copy of 'Corvette Quarterly' from April 2002..."

I have managed to reconfigure the pic file, so I can Enlarge & Edit.

I'm convinced, the brown and black ones are vac. lines, for the A/C system, as Mike suggested.
I am convinced the blue wire is definitely a wire...it has been cut, and it goes into the melted scotch-lock connector.

I am also convinced, after consultations with Dr.s McCoy, Phil, and Duntov, that exploratory surgery will be needed to determine the exact location of the blood clot that has caused this anurism.

We(you, really, Ted) need to remove the air duct, so we(you) can see where these vac. lines/blue wires go, and perhaps determine why there is a scotch-lock there in the first place.

This will need to be done to correct the malfunction, anyway...unless you have "little tiny" hands.

Please keep the battery dis-connected until the source of this meltdown has been found, and repaired. We don't want yer next post to be from the burn ward at Johns/Hopkins/Paragon/Naber's Brothers hospital...

Tune in tomorrow to see Dr. Adam's evil twin come back from his trip to Abudabi.  And find out if Nurse Micki is actually Dr. Styer's daughter!
