Defect
On road maintenance vehicles equipped with rotating beacon lamps, an improper manufacturing process for the vehicle-mounted pull switch results in some units being assembled without grease applied to the switch contacts. Repeated switch operation causes poor electrical continuity, which may cause the rotating beacon lamp to extinguish while lit or prevent dimming from functioning.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the vehicle-mounted pull switch with a non-defective unit.
