I had a rat chew the radiator fan sensor wire. The computor light came
on. I could not figure it out so brought the car to the dealer. They
wanted to install a new fan, new sensor, harness. Talked about 1,100.00
to fix it. I told them not to touch anything. When I picked up the car
the service manager said a mouse chewed the wire in half. Took a 5 cent
butt splice and a 3" strip of electrical tape to fix it.

Squirrels will do it too. Tree rats. They ate through the wiring
that goes to the fuel injectors on my truck. Twice. First time I
didn't see it and limped the truck to the mechanic. He charged me $50
to tell me and put the tape on. Second time I taped it myself. sock
full of moth crystals on the carport when we are going to be away for
a few days keeps them away.

I don't know about that Scotty.... there are some fricken' big assed rats
around the docks down here. Also.. Rat is a delicacy in some parts. I like
squirrel meat... but I can't stand muskrat or gopher. Porcupine meat is
excellent!
