Seems more like the guy's broken a bracket or clamp. Pretty sure that's a major wiring harness common to every 406, and if it were a design flaw (like say the blower motor connector) I'm sure we'd be sick of hearing about it by now
<steve_earwig> I think this forum is more about keeping our cars going with minimal outlay than giving our cars more reason to go bang
