I think you're on the right track.  If your symptoms only occur at a 
specific temperature, as you say in the part of your post that I 
accidentally deleted (sorry), then I'd say the problem is indeed in a 
temperature gauge or sensor somewhere.  I think I'd look in a gauge 
first, though.

Still, if the regulator is working properly, it seems it would still 
limit the voltage, in spite of a short. . .Pitch in here, someone!
