Hazard
In the alternator of two-wheeled police vehicles, the sealant application method for cooling oil passage machining holes is improper, causing the cooling oil passage to become clogged. This results in elevated alternator coil temperature, melting of the coil insulation, coil short-circuit, and loss of power generation capability. In the worst case, the engine may stall while the vehicle is in operation.
