The problem

This product poses a serious risk of fire because of badly fitted cable seals on the ABS module plug, the latter can become contaminated, leading to a short-circuit. Excessive heat generation in the ABS module can cause a smell of burning and smoke. In extreme cases the vehicle can catch fire. This might also happen after the engine has been switched off.
