Hazard

In route buses equipped with a power transmission cut device (a structure that prevents power from being transmitted to the drivetrain unless the boarding/alighting door is closed), the electrical circuit for detecting the rear door open/closed state is separated into one for the power transmission cut device and another for the door pinch prevention device. Therefore, when a small foreign object becomes caught in the rear door, the power transmission cut device may be disengaged while the door open indicator remains illuminated and the door pinch prevention device remains operational. If the vehicle starts in this condition, the door may open while driving if a passenger blocks the sensor (photoelectric tube).

動力伝達カット装置(乗降口の扉を閉じた後でなければ走行装置に動力を伝達することができない構造)を備えた路線バスにおいて、後扉の開閉状態を検知するための電気回路が動力伝達カット装置用と扉挟み込み防止装置用とで分離しているため、後扉に小さな異物等が挟まった場合、扉挟み込み防止装置が作動可能な状態で扉開き知らせ灯が点灯したまま、動力伝達カット装置が解除することがある。そのため、その状態で発進すると、走行中に乗客が検知器(光電管)を遮った際に扉が開くおそれがある。

Remedy

Modify the wiring of the electrical circuit for detecting rear door open/closed state on all vehicles.
