2002 SPECTOR SPEC TEC Recall

Campaign:

Component:

Service brakes, air:antilock:abs warning light

Manufactured:

05/31/2002 - 09/29/2003

Affected:

100

Defect:

On certain trailers equipped with bendix ec-30t electronic control units (ecu), if the trailer-mounted abs warning lamp circuit experiences an electrical short and the short is not repaired, the high side power switch inside the ecu that controls the illumination of the trailer-mounted abs warning lamp may eventually become thermally stressed and experience an electrical short.

Consequence:

If the power switch shorts, it can result in an over-current condition in the ecu and lead to excessive heat, smoke, and possible fire.

Correction:

Bendix will notify customers and will provide a remedy to owners free of charge. owners should contact bendix at 1-800-478-1793.

Notes:

Also, customers can contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-888-dash-2-dot (1-888-327-4236).
