Defect	In the harness of the sensor that detects the seating of an occupant in a combine harvester, due to insufficient evaluation during the design phase, there is a defect in the wiring layout near the seat, causing some parts to approach movable sections. As a result, if an occupant adjusts the seat position, the harness may get pinched by a movable part, causing damage and a short circuit. In the worst case, the key switch fuse may blow, leading to the engine stopping and becoming unable to restart.
