Answer
Wesley it sounds like you might have a short circuit somewhere. I think your best bet would be to take it to a reputable shop and have them look at it. Make sure they have warranty on their labor and that it is printed out on the receipt. That way if anything would happen ( catching on fire or worse) they would be held liable. sorry I couldn't offer anymore help.
