ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

Issued by Carrier Corporation · Reported Apr 15, 2014 · 13,363 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Carrier Corporation (Carrier) is recalling certain Carrier Transicold X2 2100A, X2 2500A trailer refrigeration units, and aftermarket replacement part kits. The affected units have certain taped wiring harnesses and optional field-installed unit bottom panels. A bolt may protrude from the bottom panel and abrade the taped wiring harness.

Consequence

If the bottom panel bolt abrades one of the two battery wires in the harness, a short may occur, increasing the risk of a fire.

Remedy

Carrier will notify owners, and dealers will inspect and install a rubber lined clamp to prevent the wires from contacting the bottom panel bolt. The recall began on May 28, 2014. Owners may contact Carrier customer service at 1-800-448-1661. Carrier's number for this recall is SER14-013.
