2003 International 7600 recalls, newest first

December 21, 2005NHTSA 05V5670006,848 vehicles potentially affected

Engine and engine cooling

Summary: On certain heavy duty trucks equipped with caterpillar diesel engines, the engine electrical ground cable that connects the engine block with the starter may be routed in a way that could cause chafing against the starter's positive battery cables.
Consequence: If chafing occurs between the positive and negative cables, an electrical short may result and may cause a vehicle fire, possibly resulting in property damage, personal injury or death.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect the engine ground cables for proper routing. If any chafing is found, the engine block ground cable will be replaced with a shorter (280MM) cable and any other damaged cables will be replaced and routed correctly free of charge. The recall began on December 21, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.

Trailer hitches › Fifth wheel assembly

Summary: On certain vehicles equipped with air operated fifth wheel slides and an msva 7-pack accessory controller, the 7-pack can allow water to contaminate its circuit board. This could result in inadvertent operation of the fifth wheel slide control.
Consequence: If the slide control actuates while the vehicle is in motion, momentum from the trailer can cause the fifth wheel to slide without input from the driver, which could result in a crash without warning.
Remedy: Dealers will relocate the msva 7-pack to a less water intensive environment. A new msva 7-pack base, that has been improved to prevent water intrusion, and all air accessory solenoids will be installed free of charge. The recall began on August 5, 2005. Owners may contact international at 1-800-448-7825.

Electrical system › 12V/24V/48V battery › Cables

Summary: On certain heavy duty trucks equipped with international DT530, cummins, or caterpillar I-6 engines, the positive battery cable between the batteries and the starter may rub against an electrical ground cable between the starter and frame rail.
Consequence: This could cause an electrical short and/or fire.
Remedy: Dealers will inspect for any chafing. If there is no evidence of chafing, a saddle clamp will be installed. If there is evidence of chafing, the damaged cables will be replaced and the saddle clamp installed. The recall began on August 16, 2004. Owners should contact international at 1-800-448-7825.
