My Antminer S9 pins began to burn

I’ve been running my antminer S9 13.5 for one month and everything been good so far. Today, when I was just inspecting the miner, i noticed the color of some of the 6pin connected to hash board have become darker. Also the plastic coating of some of the wires was slightly burned. I felt the wires and they were really hot. The miner was still hashing without any problem but I turned it off immediately as I feared it might catch fire. I use APW++ PSU bought directly from bitmain.

Incidentally the three pins connecting to the third hashboard which are also the farthest from the PSU are the worst affected ones.

Has anyone faced this problem before? Is it a faulty PSU or could it be a faulty board?
