Trailmobile Semi-Trailer: Brakes

Affects Trailmobile Semi-Trailer · 2000–2003 — about 1 vehicles.

The hazard

On certain vehicles, if the trailer-mounted ABS warning lamp circuit experiences an electrical short and the short is not repaired, the high side power switch inside the Electronic Control Unit (ECU) that controls the illumination of the trailer-mounted ABS warning lamp may eventually become thermally stressed and experience an electrical short. If the power switch shorts, it can result in an over-current condition in the ECU and lead to excessive heat, smoke and possible fire. Correction: Dealer will affect repairs.
