## What is wrong

Certain vehicles with the key in the "ON" position, may exhibit a condition in which the ABS motor shorts to its case and grounds through a flexible brake pipe.  This electrical short can cause extreme heating of the flexible brake pipe to the point where it can melt a nearby flexible plastic fuel hose, and could result in an underhood fire.  Correction:  Dealers will install a ground cable from the electronic brake control module to the engine compartment body rail.
