Foresee ? I am sure they were warned by the eng's. IIRC the AC series they also ran a wire through the griplets & tacked them down. We kept a list of commontraces ( W17A-W17B-W17C ) to hard wire on the bottom. The EC chassis was even worse. Griplets on 3 modules, the selector & tuner. UGH !
Funny thing is if it were not for the griplets the AA, AB, AC & EC were as a
reliable sets as you could find.
Well when sales dept gets in the way bad crap happens, remember those 18"
Sylvania AC cords ?
