thank you all for your informative replies. I have learned a lot in
the last few days!

I am now reading about thermal fuse and the such. Currently the
battery positive side has a 40a fuse. the battery supplies juice to
two 12v 230 watts motors. I am trying to find out if I should add a
thermal fuse , and where in the circuitry I should add them. Close to
the motors as possible or replace the 40a fuse with a thermal fuse


I wouldn't worry about it, you've got a line fuse that'll protect it from
overload.
