I have 3 FJ 60's. The same wire is burnt on all three of them. Is this a wire routing issue? Or is this the beginning of a wiring problem?

Yeah, it is the thermostat wire, it takes a lot of abuse.

Replace it with a mechanical guage and copper line and you wont have to worry about it.
well I got a bunch of cruisers with the same wire and aint never burned one up, I would suspect its routed wrong.
you could wrap it in heat tape or a shield though

Thanks
Do you really have 3 FJ60's now? What did you get? Did you mean 3 2F's?
I'll be sure to check that wire on mine.

The brown 84, the silver 86 and a blue 84. I have the blue 84 sold to my nieghbor already.

That is the head temp sensor wire. I believe there is some clip or bracket that helps support it to keep it away from the exhaust manifold. Maybe its the choke cable that has the bracket..... A couple of zip ties should keep it safe.
