## What is wrong

On certain pickup trucks, the alternator wire may be improperly attached, leaving it susceptible to a possible loss of clamp load under certain circumstances. If the alternator connection becomes loose, the high resistance circuit may overheat the power distribution center \(PDC\), possibly causing a vehicle fire. Correction: Dealers will inspect the installation of the alternator wire connection to the PDC and if necessary re\-position the wire and re\-tighten the attaching nut if necessary.
