ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:WIRING

Issued by Braun Ambulances · Reported Feb 1, 2024 · 628 vehicles affected

What's wrong

Braun Ambulances (Braun) is recalling certain 2020-2023 Chief XL I, Express Plus I, Chief XL III, Liberty I, Super Chief I, Signature Series III, Signature Series I, and 2020-2024 Express III emergency vehicles equipped with Weldon 8X16 Input-Output nodes. In the event of a short circuit or wiring failure, the firmware in the node may fail to shut off the output pin, resulting in overloaded electrical circuits.

Consequence

Overloaded electrical circuits can overheat, increasing the risk of fire.

Remedy

Weldon will update the firmware, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed February 28, 2024. Owners may contact Akron Brass customer service at 1-800-228-1161 or Braun customer service at 1-800-488-0359. Braun's number for this recall is 2024-01.
