A&M recall: Equipment
What is wrong
A&M Systems, Inc. (A&M) is recalling certain electric door actuators manufactured August 1, 2009, through March 31, 2010. Voltage spikes may damage electrical components and electrical circuits, causing the circuit board to develop high resistance.
What could happen
High resistance may cause the board to overheat, increasing the risk of a fire.
The fix
A&M will notify the bus manufacturers and the bus manufacturers will replace the circuit board, free of charge. The recall began on August 1, 2013. Owners may contact A&M at 1-574-522-5000 extension 15.
