Details

What's wrong: The positive battery cable terminal at the starter solenoid may be formed incorrectly. Incorrectly formed terminals can contact the starter solenoid housing and cause an electric short circuit.

Why it matters: An electrical short circuit between the battery cable andthe starter housing can result in an underhood fire.

The fix: Inspect and, if necessary, adjust the clearance between the positive battery cable terminal so that it does not contact the starter solenoid housing.
