The defect
E-One Incorporated (E-One) is recalling certain 2013-2017 Cyclone II, Typhoon, and Quest II emergency vehicles equipped with a Cummins ISL, L9, ISX15, or X15 engine. The affected engines do not have a diode in the starter solenoid circuit to improve the longevity of the lock-out relay, resulting in accumulated damage over time.
The risk
The damaged starter lock-out relay may prevent the vehicle from starting, hindering personnel from responding to emergencies.
The remedy
E-One will notify owners, and dealers will install a diode in the starter solenoid circuit and install a new starter lock-out relay, free of charge. The recall began on February 19, 2018. Owners may contact E-One customer service at 1-352-861-3612.
