Filing in context
The Wiring is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 236 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 26 Hino notifications from 2011 in this archive. For scale, 4,467 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles; the vehicles involved here were manufactured over a span of about 1 year and 1 month.
Defect
On large touring buses equipped with a cold-climate toilet at the rear of the vehicle, improper installation of the toilet water tank may have caused the toilet freeze-prevention wiring harness to become pinched beneath the tank. This can damage the harness and, in the worst case, cause a short circuit that produces smoke from the interior ceiling panel.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the harness and, if it is found to be pinched, repair it.
