Axle/Gears: it's part of the transmission
a positive 12v wire is touching ground in there somehow.

There's really nothing much else that will cause that to happen.

Unravel all the tape and wire loom around that area and look for broken insulation on the wires. correct the problem with tape or rewire if necessary.

it is most likely touching chassis ground, and is right away visible, possibly on a corner or sharp edge...use a flashlight.
