It's quite apparent that extinguisher was still in case 8. I bet all the FTAs get an email this week.

Unless it changed this season, Michigan does not use the standard road case system that the rest of the country uses. There is no case 8, just a toolbox and a tote or two with the non-tool items that are usually in case 8 (paper towel glass cleaner, etc). I'm actually not sure where the fire extinguisher is stored with Michigan fields.
Disclaimer: I didn't do any events in Michigan this year, so it may have changed.

Or would this happen even if the frame isolation test passed?

Or maybe it happened after inspection? Wire coming loose during a match?
