Electrical system: 12v/24v/48v battery

What is wrong
On certain transit buses equipped with vanner 60 series battery equalizers, the equalizer could fail to operate properly and cause malfunction of the battery charging system.
Risk
Without fusing, the equalizer may melt, burn, or smoke, possibly resulting in a fire or a smoke filled bus, thus necessitating a passenger evacuation of the bus. The failure mode can cause operator distraction, and/or possible personal injury.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the buses for certain equalizers by the date code. Owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact nabi at 1‑800‑227‑6937, ext. 217,or vanner at 1‑800‑227‑6937.
