DefectDue to improper routing design in the transmission's electrical wiring, the seal part of the connector wiring may deteriorate over time due to heat from the exhaust pipe and rainwater. As a result, the sealing performance may not be maintained, allowing rainwater to enter the connector, causing a short circuit. This can lead to battery drain while parked. In the worst case, the heat generated by the short circuit could melt surrounding components and potentially lead to a fire.
ComponentElectrical wiring (connector wiring)
RemedyFor all vehicles, the connector in the affected area will be replaced with a longer wiring harness, and the routing will be redone.
