Possibility that the starter cable and starting circuit wire assemblies wereimproperly routed permitting the surrounding protective sleev to chafe againstthe forward edge of the front suspension right control arm. If conditionexists, the movement can wear through the protective sleeve and the cable andor wire insulation and result in a battery voltage short to the upper arm.
