Mine was degraded to the point where the headlight would flicker on an off,
then  high beam, , then low.   My Indy couldn’t fix it so the dealer said
harness in. Never occurred to me since I too thought from the list only
later ones and not diesels.

Someone can post the fats, but my memory is that the biodegradable 
harnesses were 93-96.  Herr Doktor always said the diesels were 
immune to the biodegradable harness problems, but I believe they are 
just slower to degrade.  Evidence on list from the last couple of 
years indicates that the Diesel harnesses are beginning to degrade, 
or the list is populated by nervous nellies.  I tend to think the 
former, though the latter may be true in some cases.
