Defect
On large sightseeing and express route buses, the mounting position of the underbody harness retaining clips is incorrect, allowing the harness to contact the pipe mounting bracket. Continued operation subjects the harness to vehicle vibration, damaging the insulation. In the worst case, engine stall and failure of lights and other electrical devices to illuminate may occur.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the clearance between the harness and the bracket and reposition the harness retaining clip where clearance is insufficient. If the harness shows damage, repair the harness.
