Defect
During engine side mount installation, mounting bolts on some vehicles damaged the insulation of the engine room wire harness. Vibration during driving may cause the damaged insulation to rupture and create a short circuit, resulting in the right headlamp, front fog lamps, clearance lamps, and brake lamps failing to illuminate, and the horn failing to sound.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the electrical wiring. If the conductor is damaged, replace the entire wiring harness with a new part. If only the insulation or protective cover is damaged, repair the affected section and reroute the wiring to its proper position.
