Defect

On large and medium route buses, the wiring routed inside the distribution box below the driver's seat is improperly routed, causing the wiring to become pinched when the side panel is installed. Continued use can damage the wire insulation, resulting in a short circuit. In the worst case, the doors may become inoperable.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, a wiring protection sheet is added to the wiring near the side panel mounting area of the distribution box below the driver's seat. The wiring in that area is then inspected, and any damaged wiring is repaired.
