BJ,
This may be irrelevant to your situation, but my Cobra started getting hot seemingly without explanation. It turned out the elec fans started drawing more amps than they had previously(likely due to age, possibly bad connections). I had a self-resetting fuses in place for the fans. As the fans drew more and more power, they overheated the thermal fuse. When this triggered, the fans would stop. With the fans stopped, the fuse cooled down and reset itself, so the fans would start again.....

Fans on - fuse overheats and triggers.
Fans turn off - fuse cools and resets.
Fans back on - overheat fuse and trigger it.
Fans off again - fuse cools and resets.....
On and on and on!

Do you have self-resetting fuses?
