Details

What's wrong: An in-line fuse to the auxiliary battery was omitted.

Why it matters: If a short occurred in the power line from the battery without the presence of over-current protection, the 12 volt line can overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.

The fix: Dealers will install an in-line fuse to the auxiliary battery.
