The issue
On certain motorhomes, incorrect fuses were installed in the refrigerator 12V circuits. A 5-amp fuse was installed in the lamp/fan circuit instead of a 3-amp fuse, and a 20-amp fuse was installed in the heating element circuit instead of a 15-amp fuse. These oversized fuses fail to provide proper circuit protection, which could result in a fire causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will replace the affected fuses.
Description (français)
Sur certaines autocaravanes, des fusibles incorrects ont été posés dans les circuits de 12 V du réfrigérateur. Un fusible de 5 A a été posé dans le circuit ventilateur/lampe au lieu d'un fusible de 3 A, et un fusible de 20 A a été posé dans le circuit de l'élément chauffant au lieu d'un fusible de 15 A. Ces fusibles surdimensionnés ne protègent pas adéquatement les circuits, ce qui pourrait causer un incendie endommageant des biens matériels ou blessant quelqu'un. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les fusibles visés.
