Holiday Rambler Corp.: Electrical System › Wiring › Fuses and Circuit Breakers
Holiday Rambler Corp. reported this defect to federal regulators on Apr 22, 1996 and put the number of vehicles at risk at 494. The repair is free for as long as the recall stands.
The defect
THE FUSE FOR THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT CIRCUIT MAY BE UNDER RATED FOR THESE MOTORHOMES. THE CIRCUIT REQUIRES A 20 AMP FUSE AND A 15 AMP FUSE MAY HAVE BEEN INSTALLED. ALSO THE CIRCUIT CONNECTING THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS TO THE FUSE PANEL INCORRECTLY STATES 15 AMP.
The risk
IF THE 15 AMP FUSE IS INSTALLED AND THE DRIVER HAS NOT MANUALLY TURNED THE HEADLIGHTS ON, THE FUSE WILL BLOW WHEN THE HIGH BEAMS A RETURNED ON. THE HEADLIGHTS WILL THEN GO OFF INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
The remedy
DEALERS WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE ANY 15 AMP FUSE IN THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT CIRCUIT WITH A 20 AMP FUSE. A LABEL WILL ALSO BE INSTALLED ON THE POSITIVE WIRE FOR THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS AT THE FUSE PANEL AND THE LETTERING ON THE FUSE PANEL WHICH PRESENTLY READS 15 AMP WILL BE COVERED.

What this page is, and what to do next
A recall is not an opinion. It is a Part 573 report a manufacturer is required by federal law to file once it decides a defect poses an unreasonable risk to safety, and it commits them to repairing the vehicle at no cost to the owner. The three passages above are the manufacturer’s own wording as published by NHTSA.
This page describes the campaign. It cannot tell you whether one particular car has already been through the shop — that is tracked by VIN, and only the manufacturer knows it. Check yours at nhtsa.gov/recalls or with a franchised dealer, quoting campaign number 96V066000.
