Details

What's wrong: The additional police accessories may cause the 30-amp main fuse to blow. Also, the additional police wiring harness may chafe leading to a short, which may blow the main fuse.

Why it matters: If the fuse blows, the engine may stall increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Kawasaki will notify owners, and provide instructions to mitigate electrical system failure, free of charge. The safety recall began on April 5, 2012.
