SERVICE INFORMATION

Several wires at the rear of the alternator are routed through a metal hold-down clamp. This clamp may damage the wires' insulation, eventually shorting or grounding the wires. Various electrical problems
ranging from a blown fuse to failure to start may result from this damage.

SERVICE PROCEDURE

If the wires at the rear of the alternator are damaged, repair or replace the harness as required. Even if no damage is visible, wrap the affected area with tape or other protective material to prevent future damage.
