# Service bulletin SB1402

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## NHTSA's summary

Van Hool has determined that the parcel\-rack lighting circuit is not well executed due to an error in the production process. On TD925 vehicles, a connection in the parcel\-rack lighting circuit is inadequate. The splicing of the electrical wires has been executed by twisting the strands together and insulating them with electrical tape instead of using a connector. Also neighbouring spare wires were mistakenly put together in the same connection. This situation can result in arching and overheating when the parcel\-rack lighting circuit is energized and one of the spare wire ends is grounded. Follow the step\-by\-step instructions mentioned under "To modify TD925 parcel\-rack lighting c ircuit". The necessary parts are listed in the table on page 2. On TDX25US vehicles, a 4\-pin connector with loose wires has not been removed as it should have been. This may result in arching and overheating when the parcel\-rack lighting circuit is energized and one of the loose wire ends is grounded. Follow the instructions mentioned under ?To modify TDX25 parcel\-rack lighting circuit?. No parts are necessary for TDX25 vehicles.
