Defect

In the auxiliary brake lamp, the printed wiring on the internal circuit board is improperly positioned. During vehicle operation, vibration causes the board's mounting screws to contact and abrade the insulation on the printed wiring, creating a short circuit in the power supply circuit. This blows the fuse and may cause warning lights to illuminate in the instrument cluster, warning messages to appear on the multi-information display, and the auxiliary brake lamp and brake lamps to become inoperative. In the worst case, the engine may fail to start.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the auxiliary brake lamp with a corrected part.
