1996 International Harvester 3900 recalls, newest first

September 13, 1996NHTSA 96V174000580 vehicles potentially affected

Service brakes, hydraulic › Antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip

Summary: The wiring from the electronic control unit was connected to the wrong wheel sensor or to the wrong brake modulator valve. It is possible that either or both wiring may have occurred at either the front or rear axle or both axles.
Consequence: Should the anti-lock braking system (ABS) wiring be crossed, it would result in a significant degradation in vehicle stopping distance. A signal would be sent to the wrong brake chamber when a brake imbalance is detected. This condition increases the risk of a vehicle accident.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the ABS wiring and, if necessary, properly connect.
