I was working under the hood replacing the battery and discovered a mouse nest under the fuse block. I lifted the block removed the nest and discovered damage on at least 12 of the wires. The majority are just small bite marks thru the insulation leading from the fuses/relays that can probably be repaired with some heat shrink.
However there is a cable connector located in the bottom of the box, it appears to be related with the computer, as it just passes thru the box. Several of those wires have small bites as well however one got chewed up very badly. Does anyone have any idea what the color coding of those wires could be? I am trying to figure out if that damage relates to any noticeable issues.
Truck seemed to run fine when I parked it last week, and I am sure the nest has been there a while, but may never of been fully occupied, as it was only grass and one shell. Plus the badly chewed wire is clearly oxidized and not bright and shiny like it was done recently.
