Nolan’s Notes: Wire Harness—The Underdog of the Industry
04/01/2026 | Nolan Johnson -- Column: Nolan's NotesMy dad’s favorite cartoon character was “Underdog,” one of the very first American Saturday morning cartoon shows.

These stories about underdogs kept coming to mind while working on this issue about the challenges facing the wire harness industry. The product is not exactly glamorous and is often treated as an afterthought, but it is most certainly critical to the system.
