Reason for concern

SHORT-CIRCUIT MAY OCCUR / RISK OF FIRE

Reason for recall

The pre-heater power cable after time may exhibit chafing damages caused by movement over the support bracket on which the cable is attached. If the insulation is worn through this may result in short-circuit and if all the indicators are ignored the worst case scenario is fire.

Remedy

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected and inspect the power cable to pre-heater to ensure there is no damage or contact with any abrasive surfaces or edges. The cable should be replaced if there is significant damage. Correct clamping by adding a rubber spacer at each of the two concerned clamping points according to instruction below. Also add a 7 mm spacer washer under the existing cable tie at the pre-heater relay box.
