Recall 1989151

The issue

THE ELECTRICAL CABLES FROM THE BATTERY TO THE STARTER SOLENOID COULD BECOME WEDGED BETWEEN THE BOTTOM OF THE SEAT AND THE WIRE GUIDE. THIS COULD LEAD TO INSULATION DAMAGE AND A POSSIBLE SHORT CIRCUIT WHICH COULD IN TURN CAUSE ENGINE STOPPAGE AND LIGHT FAILURE, RESULTING IN A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT. CORRECTION: CABLES WILL BE ROUTED THROUGH THE COIL BRACKET, A GROMMET WILL BE INSTALLED TO PREVENT CHAFING OF THE INSULATION AND CABLES WILL BE SECURED WITH A PLASTIC TIE WRAP. CABLES FOUND TO BE DAMAGED DURING INITIAL INSPECTION WILL BE REPLACED.

Description (français)

Les câbles électriques reliant la batterie au solénoïde du démarreur risque de sé coincer entre la fond du siège et le guide-fil, ce qui pourrait endommager l'isolation et causer un court-circuit. Il pourrait en résulter un arrêt du moteur et une défaillance du circuit d'éclairage, d'où un accident possible.
