Agreed - what can go wrong with a harness?
I found the only problems with my TR4 harness were as a result of shorts - and
they were, themselves, the result of poorly-done additions to the loom. Alarm
systems seem to be the worst culprit here...
Unfortunately, shorts have an annoying habit of melting insulation deep in the
harness and causing more shorts & failures. Ask me how I know...
