Micro Bird Mbii School Bus, G5 School Bus: Electrical

Affects Micro Bird Mbii School Bus, G5 School Bus · 2009–2011 — about 587 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain school buses, the wiring harness for the flashing lights (used while passengers are boarding or leaving the vehicle) may be undersized and could fail. Failure of the lights to illuminate would render a stopped bus less visible to other road users, which could increase the risk of a child or pedestrian being struck by a passing motorist, causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will add a 14-gauge wiring harness and relay between the switch and control board.
