Defect
In the electrical system, some terminals inside the wiring connectors for the headlights and horn are incorrectly dimensioned. Continued use in this condition can cause the terminal joints to overheat, melting the plastic connector body. In the worst case, the melted plastic may fuse to the terminals and cause a loss of continuity, resulting in headlight failure and horn malfunction.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, add a sub-harness bridging the affected terminals.
