Not unless you meant a short to earth!

So the cable was pinched against something or rubbed against something?
Yes, the cut in the insulation can be seen but I couldn't spot on what it had rubbed. It could be worthwhile to check other vehicles for the same inappropriate routing of the harness during assembly.
Great result but shouldn't happen on a new car.

To be a short to earth the insulation must have been compromised. Close inspection should reveal exposed wires at the bottom of the depression in the insulation.
I saw the lines drawn to indicate the area.
