Lorry

Requirements breached

Owing to over-tight fitting of the cable harness, vibrations may result in breakage of the cable lug of the earth cable on the engine fixing bolt. As a result, the vehicle may lose all electrical power, which may in turn lead to sudden and, for the driver, unforeseeable failure of the dashboard instruments, vehicle lighting and hazard warning lights and to the loss of traction (engine cuts out).
