Kme electrical short circuit can occur due to a build-up of corrosion between the positive battery jumper stud and the retaining ring for the stud.
The short version
Kovatch Mobile Equipment Corp. reported a problem with the 12v/24v/48v battery cables. Here is what owners need to know.
An electrical short circuit can occur due to a build-up of corrosion between the positive battery jumper stud and the retaining ring for the stud.
An electrical short circuit may drain the battery, preventing the emergency vehicle from being able to operate, thereby increasing the risk of injury in the event of an emergency.
KME will notify owners, and dealers will clean the jumper studs, connection surfaces, and connections, free of charge.
