yup.. i agree.. Have you made any adjusments or repairs lately where a wire may have gotten crimped, knocked, or left touching metal?

I found the problem. Shorted wire routed from the electric fan under the battery along the wheel well ending in a splice into a wire beside the master cylinder. I don't think it was factory so my case might not help anyone else, but thanks for the responses.
