My 90 GL had that happen to the PO.  Rear blower unit was visibly damaged
from a small fire that started and the entire AC wire loom was toast.
headliner damage also.  I've got a replacement harness forthe wiring, but no
time or money to fix this luxury at the present time.  I would think this
would be as bad a case scenario as the injector failure, but who am I to
judge?
