Defect
During battery positive cable installation, some battery cables interfere with the battery box holders in an area not protected by insulation, allowing the positive battery cable coating to be worn through. As a result, this may cause a short circuit of the battery cable resulting in melting, smoking and, in the worst case, possibly fire.
