The defect

There is insufficient clearance between the Intelligent Power Unit cover and the DC-DC Converter cable terminal, which are positioned on the rear side of the rear seat assembly. If excessive weight is placed upon the rear set back, there is the possibility of a short circuit occurring. This short circuit is due to the IPU cover interfering with the DC-DC Converter cable terminal, this short circuit causes the main fuse to blow resulting in the engine stalling.
