Weldon Division of Akron Brass is recalling approximately 6,792 units of their 8x16 Input-Output Node Vehicle Multiplex Systems, specifically part number 6030-2000-00. In these systems, a firmware error can cause an electrical output pin to stay on even during a short circuit or wiring failure, leading to overloaded circuits. Weldon will provide a free firmware update to correct this issue and has already begun notifying owners.
The overloaded electrical circuits can cause the system to overheat, which significantly increases the risk of a vehicle fire.
