There are three distinct failure modes.  (1) Vehicles built between 06/2000 and 11/2000 may contain a defective transformer that could cause an electrical short.  (2) Vehicles built from 01/2002 to 04/2002 could have incorrect dielectric layers inside a capacitor that could lead to fluctuating current levels.  (3) Vehicles built between 05/2004 and 09/2004 may have incorrect light emitting diodes (LEDs).
