This demonstration guide answers one field question about chewed loom and nests in the cooling path. Measurements come before parts, and the notes are not a generic equipment FAQ.
Diagnose before replacing parts
Start with visual loom inspection and cooling-path blockage. That reading separates chewed loom and nests in the cooling path from adjacent faults that share the same complaint.
If the measurement is out of spec, treat the loom and enclosure seals as the primary path. If it is in spec, do not replace the loom and enclosure seals just to complete a parts list.
Repair the failed system
The usual correction is the loom and enclosure seals, installed to the documented spec for this complaint.
A demonstration shop records the finding so the next technician is not repeating a guess about chewed loom and nests in the cooling path.
Stop before you make it worse
Do not poison left inside the enclosure next to the battery. That shortcut hides the original measurement and creates a second failure.
If the machine still fails after the loom and enclosure seals is corrected, convert the visit to a broader diagnosis rather than stacking parts.
