- The problem
- Vehicle description: motor homes. The electrical conduit was not wrapped with a heat shield allowing the conduit to get too hot and sag.
- The risk
- If the conduit sags, it gets too close to the exhaust and will overheat the copper wiring inside and burn, increasing the risk of a fire.
- The fix
- Overland has gone out of business. Dealers were to wrap the conduit with heat deflector material, add 2 clamp rings, and a mounting clamp to reattach the conduit up toward the frame.
