Is there any way to tell if a vehicle has been hit by lightning? Some visual cue that might not be obvious like blown out tires or melted wiring?
I'm working on one right now that has multiple modules that are shorted to ground internally, and at least one that is shorting the run and accessory pins of the ignition switch to power. It happened while the vehicle was left to sit unused for several months, and I can find no evidence of rodents, wiring damage, or the other usual suspects.
I'm just wondering if anyone knows of any more subtle visual cues I may be able to look for.
