Issue

Issue:
On certain fire trucks equipped with a Weldon vehicle multiplex system, a software problem could cause the power distribution unit not to shut off if there is a short circuit or a wiring problem. As a result, the unit and/or wiring could overheat and melt.

Safety Risk:
A power distribution unit and/or wiring that overheats and melts could create the risk of a fire.

Corrective Actions:
Maxi-Metal will notify owners by mail and advise you to contact Weldon to update the Weldon power distribution unit software.
