It's only a min to check it out and if you have corrosion its easy to clean it up and grease it. Not that big of a deal. I was hopeing that that's what was causing my acd pump not to kick on but I couldn't be that lucky

Cleaning it may not completely solve the problem as the corrosion spreads into the wire itself sometimes. It can go a good inch into the sheath and spread again but with any luck you're ok. I would seal that grommet asap though, especially since the roads are so wet with melting snow and ice.

I had never heard about it, then it happened to me, Ben and apparently Tim all within a short time period. It's easy to check for, but to fix properly is a little bit of a hassle.

I striped some of the insulation back about 2 inches to check on the bad ones it was ok. I sealed that boot up too. It would be a pita to cut and solder everything

basically i was trying to drive home- I put the key in and turned and the car cut out like a dead starter. the car lights would turn on (boost gauge did a sweep) then it would turn off, then it would turn back on (another boost gauge sweep), then off
WTF
