Defect
The interior wiring harness is improperly routed and secured, causing it to contact the upper section of the clutch pedal during pedal operation and sustain damage. In the worst case, the wiring short-circuits, blowing a fuse and causing the headlamps or other lighting to fail or overheat.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, re-secure the affected wiring to a location where it cannot contact the clutch pedal. Inspect the wiring; repair any damaged sections where repair is possible, and replace with new wiring where repair is not possible.
