Hazard

①In large and medium-sized transit buses, the protective edge finish at the connection between the distribution box located below the driver's seat and the driver's side wall panel is inadequate, causing interference between the edge and wiring in some vehicles. Continued use may result in wiring insulation damage and short-circuiting, which in the worst case could cause engine stall during operation and prevent restart.

①大型・中型路線バスにおいて、運転者席下側配電箱と運転者席側壁パネルの接続部の端部の保護が不適切なため、当該端部と配線が干渉するものがある。そのため、そのまま使用を続けると、配線の被覆が損傷して短絡し、最悪の場合、走行中にエンジンが停止し、再始動できなくなるおそれがある。

Remedy

①Inspect the connection between the distribution box below the driver's seat and the driver's side wall panel on all vehicles. For connections with inadequate edge protection, add protective material. If wiring is damaged, repair the wiring.
