New wire.
New switch.
Time to add in relayed power so as to avoid this in the future.

You can run power from the battery to the big side of 30 amp relay(s)
and then onto the lights. The trigger side of the relay(s) will be
connected to the currently burnt wire/switch, once you replace the
crispy parts.
