Details

What's wrong: An electrical relay on the pc board will fail to activate. When the relay fails to activate, other electrical components, and the pc board itself, are required to carry excess electrical current.

Why it matters: The electrical components and the pc board can overheat, char and produce smoke, possibly resulting in a fire.

The fix: Rv products is conducting the owner notification and remedy campaign for this recall. Owners will receive a replacement electrical control box and installation instructions. If an owner so desires, they can have their dealer install this control box.
