NHTSA recall 03V039000
Electrical System · Indian Motorcycle Company
Details
What's wrong: On certain motorcycles equipped with compufire brand series type voltage regulators, if damaged, the voltage regulator can become stuck in an open mode that allows battery voltage to flow back through the regulator.
Why it matters: This condition can potentially cause the regulator to catch on fire.
The fix: Dealers will inspect the motorcycle and, if necessary, replace the regulator. Owner notification began February 14, 2003.
