Defect
The electrical wiring routed to the electronic control unit (ECU) mounted inside the instrument panel is improperly routed, causing the wiring to contact the metal bracket securing the ECU. Continued use damages the wiring, and in the worst case, the engine stalls and cannot be restarted.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, install an interference-prevention material on the ECU mounting bracket. If the wiring is already damaged, perform the necessary repair.
