The risk
The wiring harness may come into contact with the ABS modulator. If the wiring harness is damaged there is the possibility of an electrical connection occurring between the ABS modulator and the vehicle chassis earth via the brake pipes. This could lead to the brake pipe overheating and eventually melting, which may lead to failure of a circuit of the braking system.
