THis was at the track and somehow my zipties had given away and the harness was touching left EM. Gave real strange codes and only after fitting spare parts the codes suggested with no help I checked the wiring.
It was all melted together in one spot and wires were in contact with eachother. The safety shielding around the wires had no holes but the white stuff was shown under the black one
Luckily I managed to tear it apart and tape it somehow so the car would drive in limp mode to home.

If anyone has a spare harness to sell PM me asap.

TIA
