Which is great if I'm going to replace the entire harness. Yesterday I was puting along a few blocks away from my house when all of a sudden my LC sputtered and shut off. I had a friend drag me back home and we found a wire that powers the alarm/engine shut off that had come undone, we plugged her back in and everything was back to normal, or so I thought.
We let it run for a few minutes then shut it off, later that night I had to get dinner but I only made it a few blocks before the sputter came back only this time after it died and tried cranking it over again lots of white smoke came from under the hood.
We dragged it back home and started looking for the problem...and we found it (see attachment).
Has anyone ever had this happen to them? We figured the harness had been rubbing in the pcv valve metal hose (after the big nut) but dont know what else could have been the problem. Not one cable is damaged all the way through, they all are melted in the same spot.?
