good luck
Also, sloppy assembly at the factory can accomplish the same thing. This one was chafing against itself inside the convoluted tubing and inside the plastic tape wrap as assembled from the factory, 10" from the PCM:



Fortunately the two failed circuits in this case only involved the ABS and cooling fan operation, so it was really nothing important. As long as the GPS and radio work, the vehicle is just fine, right?
