[QUOTE="MartyA, post: 787922, member: 5488"] Good photo showstopper. Looks like mine did, that brown area in the upper left corner, was corroded inside. Look at the black cap, does it show any deterioration? Mine had just a little bubbling underneath, the top was fine. FYI a quick and dirty emergency repair to get you going again, carry a 5' length of wire with you, stick one end into that hole in the center of the spider and tape it to hold it, then connect the other end of the wire to the frame. This restores the ground connection and gets you on your way. Use a substantial gauge of wire. Then immediately order Art's or Brodie's fix. I convinced my dealer that the fix was to completely replace both wiring harnesses under warranty, which he did. When he did he connected Art's harnesses to it. I said it before this is going to happen to you, just a matter of time. [/QUOTE]
