(ET) HELP with short(?)

[Klein Robert W NPRI <KleinRW Npt NUWC Navy Mil>]

I have disconnected the 1A contactor (green) control wires.  With them 
disconnected and the main power disconnect switch energized, the motor 
goes through the speeds, abet slower than when properly working.  Since 
the fuse was blowing it was suggested by Chris Z that I check for shorts. 
Here's the actual matrix of values measured.  I am a non-electrical guy so 
please excuse my lack of expertise.

A description of each wire is as follows
Wire # 1308 goes to RTN-N
Wire # 1305 goes to the fuel meter
Wire # 1301 goes to 20A Fuse
Wire # 13 goes to 2A Coil

1308 to 1305  68 ohms
1308 to 1301  OPEN
1308 to 13    OPEN

1305 to 1301  OPEN
1305 to 13    186 ohms

1301 to 13    1.3 ohms

1308 to Chassis   OPEN
1305 to Chassis   OPEN
1301 to Chassis   OPEN
13 to Chassis     OPEN

It appears to me (Mr. Non-Electrical Guy) that 1301 to 1305 is shorted and 
that wire 1305 to chassis is shorted.  To me it looks like 1305 is the 
culprit but it goes to the fuel meter which works.  Sooooo,Any thoughts?
