Component:

Communications:horn assembly

Manufactured:

06/22/2003 - 08/26/2003

Affected:

Defect:

On certain motorcycles, the wire that provides power to the horn, due to misrouting, can become frayed from contact with the horn bracket mounting bolt. as a result, the horn wire may become exposed, and when the horn button is pushed, either the horn circuit fuse or the key switch fuse can blow.

Consequence:

If the key switch fuse blows, the vehicle can stall, which could result in a crash. if the horn fuse blows, there will be a loss of power to the horn and rear brake light.

Correction:

Dealers will inspect and correct the wire routing, if necessary. owner notification began on december 23, 2003. owners should contact buell at 1-414-342-4680.
