| Defect Summary : Moisture can follow the electrical harness and enter the pressure switch connector causing corrosion and malfunction of the switch. |
Consequence Summary: The corrosion causes a deterioration of the electricalswitch connection and can result in false illumination of abs and/or the brake warning lights and/or the loss of power assistance because of no hydraulic pumpoperation. loss of power assist increases the driver's brake pedal effort required for stopping which can result in extended braking distances. |
| Corrective Summary : Dealers will inspect the electrical connections to the abs pressure switch terminals for corrosion and install a shrink hose to the wiring harness to avoid moisture entering the connection. pressure switches with corroded connectors will be replaced. |
