[QUOTE="Village Idiot, post: 482493, member: 29446"] First of all, this is something that should be covered regardless of whether or not you're under warranty. It was also stated on some website some where that this was caused because the casing around the wires isn't very thick and that the bending of the wire can cause it to break and short.
