Electrical system

What is wrong: On certain motor homes containing a 50 amp transfer switch built by intellitec, the material used for the wire lugs was changed from nickel plated to copper lugs. The copper lugs are softer than the nickel plated and do not retain the torque of the screw that clamps the wire connector.
Risk: When the torque is relaxed, the lugs can become loose resulting in excessive heat within the connected wire that could result in a fire.
Remedy: Dealers will replace the changeover box. The recall began on july 21, 2005. Owners may contact tiffin at 1‑256‑356‑8661.
