Issue Description

On certain B600, B700, F600, F700, F800, FT900, LA9000, LL9000, LTA9000 and LTL9000 vehicles, a connector where the wiring for lamps mounted on the tilt hood attaches to the vehicle wire harness was built without sealing plugs in the unused cavities of the connector. Road salt, moisture or other contaminants may enter the connector, which could result in crossed circuits, shorts or corrosion of the wiring in the connector and a malfunction of the headlamps or other front-end lighting systems. Correction: Sealing plugs will be installed in the unused connector cavities. If corroded, a new connector will be installed.

Electrical

Issue Description

On certain B600 and B700 vehicles, the battery power junction block mounted on the right front fender apron might be susceptible to road splash and corrosion from calcium chloride and sodium chloride. This could result in eventual fracture of the main terminal or other terminals at the junction block causing the loss of vehicle power supply or loss of power to a particular system such as the engine, power steering or hydraulic brake boost. Correction: Dealers will replace the junction block, main power terminal from the starter or starter relay and terminals at the existing block. The hydraulic brake circuit will be modified by bypassing the junction block. New terminals will be made from an alloy material more resistant to salt corrosion.
