My now departed 744T had a similar problem. When it was cold, there was a time delay between the time I turned the key to to time the idiot lights came on. I never could figure that one out. Then, after the smell of melting plastic from the relay/fuse tray, I removed that tray, the one under the radio, to find several discolored main wires and two semi-melted relay sockets. I replaced the wire ends, including the connector, and the relay sockets. The overheated main wires must have been the problem because it never happened again.

The relay tray will unclip on the left side and you can draw it towards you and flip it over to look underneath, if you are to do that though.
