DefectIn the 12V and 48V ground wiring in the engine compartment and under the floor, due to improper assembly during manufacturing, some nuts at the body ground terminal points are not tightened to the specified torque. As a result, the nuts may loosen due to vibrations during driving, increasing electrical resistance, which can lead to heat generation, melting surrounding components, and in the worst case, potentially causing a fire.
ComponentElectrical system (wiring)
