Equipment › Appliance › Air conditioner

Summary: Startrans is recalling certain model year 2006 through 2010 mfsab school buses equipped with carrier genv EM-1 evaporator units. Due to time, temperature, and/or vibration, the fuse may loosen in the fuse holder resulting in high resistance and arcing.
Consequence: If sufficient arcing occurs, the fuse holder may melt, and a vehicle fire may occur.
Remedy: Startrans will notify owners and provide information on how to obtain the retrofit kit from carrier along with repair instructions. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on April 18, 2011. (see carrier's recall campaign 11E-003.) owners may contact carrier at 1-800-793-4741 or startrans at 1-574-642-0810 or 1-574-642-0096.

Equipment

Summary: Startrans is recalling certain model year 2003-2007 mfsab school activity buses equipped with trans/air TA73 evaporators. The evaporator utilizes a power resistor to regulate blower speed. Should a short occur in the "low or medium speed" circuit while the blower is in high speed, the short will cause the supply voltage to feedback through the resistor to ground, not drawing enough current to trip the fuse.
Consequence: This would cause the resistor temperature to rise to a point where it will melt and possibly ignite the plastic blower housing to which it is mounted. The overheating can result in a fire.
Remedy: Trans/air, in cooperation with startrans, will install a thermal shutdown device in series with the speed resistors. This service will be performed free of charge. The safety recall began on January 7, 2011. Owners may contact trans/air warranty and service center at 1-800-673-2446.
