Defect
Improper assembly procedures for routing the engine wiring harness onto the frame caused the harness to be damaged during installation. Repeated steering inputs and other operations can propagate the damage into a broken wire. This may result in malfunction of the headlamps, brake lamps, turn signals, speedometer, and horn, or cause the engine to stall and fail to restart.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the wiring harness; replace it with a new harness if damage is found.
