Filing in context
The Door is the most frequently cited component category in this archive, appearing in 103 of its 4,890 filings. This filing is one of 45 Hino notifications from 2012 in this archive. For scale, 4,693 of the 4,890 filings in this archive report a larger number of affected vehicles.
Defect
On large transit buses, the ECU program controlling the rear sliding door operation is incorrect. If the driver initiates a close command and then issues an open command immediately before the door fully closes, the door warning lamp (amber) illuminates. On vehicles equipped with a single solenoid valve, the door remains closed and the driver subsequently loses the ability to operate the door from the driver's seat.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the ECU with the corrected part.
