Hazard
The coating material on the terminal ends of lighting fuses is inappropriate. Vehicle vibration causes terminal scratches, and thermal effects acting on these damaged areas generate non-conductive material (zinc oxide), resulting in poor contact. This causes one or multiple lighting units to fail, including: headlights, front fog lights, parking lights, license plate lights, tail lights, rear fog lights, brake lights, auxiliary brake lights, reverse lights, and turn signal indicators. As poor contact progresses, thermal effects at the contact points may cause the fuse holder to melt.

灯火装置用ヒューズの端子部のコーティング材質が不適切なため、車体の振動によって生じた端子部分の傷に熱の影響が加わることによって、非電導物質（酸化亜鉛）が生成され、接触不良が発生し、前照灯、前部霧灯、車幅灯、番号灯、尾灯、後部霧灯、制動灯、補助制動灯、後退灯及び方向指示器の一部、または複数が不灯になる、更に接触不良が進行すると接触部の熱影響によりヒューズホルダーが溶損するおそれが ある。
Remedy
Replace all vehicle lighting fuses with corrective parts. Inspect fuse holders and replace with new units if melting is detected.
