Seems harness is big issue here, w/wires breaking at the plug to the solenoid. However, mine broke inside harness as it comes through firewall in footwell passenger side front. Any passenger can damage the harness by simply putting feet forward w/toes up into area where harness comes through firewall stretch out, this slowly over time results in damaging harness and even pulling pins from the computer plugs going into EMC.
