My first post. I appreciate the expertise on this site. Great! My 2006 Lib CRD wouldn't start last week. Happened to my brother after running errands for a couple hours. Turn key - no action, full dash lights etc. Towed to dealer and they found the starter fuse blown. Track further and the mechanic found the main wire harness looked like it had overheated and was sticking together and first report was that wires might be melting together. After hours of tracking, the culprit was a broken wire at the alternator. But the mechanic reported the wire harness was heat damaged and he moved it away from the engine as best he could. I asked if the harness looked baked from external heat or from a wire that overheated inside the harness. He indicated he thought it was external heat. Drove the 15 miles home and opened the hood and it did feel way hot, although I can't say it's any different than new. Stock liberty CRD except a recent INMOTION tune about a month ago. Any comments on this? Love the ride but am now nervous about a solo romp in the desert. Thanks for any suggestions or comments. |

you would do better to post this in "CRD. . . Love that Torque." That is where most of the CRD'ers hang out. |

Thanks. This is a great site for info. I just moved the question to the CRD section. Still learning the site navigation. |
