Default Loose ground strap

The ground straps on the back of the head. What happens if one is loose? Thanks

Probably nothing. However, poor grounds "could" result in everything from electrolysis ruining the radiator to fried PCM's. These potential problems are not likely, but are possible. The most likely problem would be electrical noise in an aftermarket stereo system.
