Blue Bird Vision School Bus: Electrical

Affects Blue Bird Vision School Bus · 2004 — about 157 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, the bus bar that connects the ammeter shunt to the engine air intake grid heater Megafuse was incorrectly installed. The improper installation of this bus bar creates excessive electrical resistance and potential overheating in the grid heater power circuit. This additional resistance could result in overheating at the Megafuse holder with potential for fire in the engine compartment at the Megafuse assembly. Correction: Dealer will install a spacer bar in the Megafuse holder to ensure proper installation of the bus bar.
