Manufacturer summary

Original wording in English

"THIS SERVICE INFORMATION BULLETIN ANNOUNCES A DESIGN CHANGE TO THE ENGINE WIRING HARNESS TO PREVENT WATER INTRUSION AND ACCUMULATION FROM OCCURRING INSIDE THE CORRUGATED PLASTIC HARNESS TUBING. IN SOME CASES, THIS ACCUMULATION MAY CAUSE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO ILLUMINATE AND EXHAUST CAMSHAFT POSITION-RELATED DTCS TO BE STORED IN THE ECM MEMORY (E.G. P0390, P0391). THE CHANGE INVOLVES FULL TAPING OF THE HARNESS TUBE AS OPPOSED TO PITCH TAPING (NO TAPE OVERLAP) TO ENHANCE “SEALING” OF THE HARNESS TUBE AND PREVENT WATER INTRUSION WHICH MAY OCCUR DURING ENGINE CLEANING (STEAM CLEANING AND / OR PRESSURE WASHING). UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS, THERE IS NO POSSIBILITY OF THIS CONDITION OCCURRING. COMPARISON PHOTOS OF THE TAPING ARE SHOWN BELOW FOR REFERENCE."

Repeated filings are grouped only when make, bulletin number, publication date and complete summary agree. Original record numbers are retained. Older publications remain available, and an explicit later version is shown when established. Pre-1994 vehicle associations are separated from default results; an unspecified year does not mean all model years apply.
