THIS IS AN EXTENSION OF RECALL 77117 WHICH INVOLVED ONLY AIR- CONDITIONED VEHICLES. THE MAIN ELECTRICAL POWER FEED CIRCUIT FROM THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR MAY BE DISCONNECTED DUE TO A SEPARATION OF THE MULTIPLE CONNECTOR AT ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIREWALL. THIS CONDITION WOULD CAUSE A LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER TO THE ENGINE, LIGHTS AND OTHER ACCESSORIES. (EXCEPT POWER DOOR LOCKS AND POWER SEATS.)
