Defect
The wiring for the engine intake air preheating system is improperly routed and secured to the top of the engine, allowing the wiring to contact adjacent components. Continued use damages the insulation, causing the conductor core to generate heat and emit smoke. In the worst case, the insulation may catch fire.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the affected wiring. Where insulation is undamaged, add a clamp to secure the wiring. Where contact marks are present on the insulation, repair the insulation and add a protective cover and clamp. Where significant short-circuit marks are present on the conductor core, replace the wiring with a corrected part and add a clamp.
