Recall 05V-083: 2006 Keystone Cambridge
KEYSTONE RV COMPANY recall for exterior lighting, reported to NHTSA on Mar 8, 2005, covering about 88 vehicles.
The problem
On certain fifth wheel trailers, the dimmer switch may have been wired with reverse polarity. This will cause the lights on the switched circuit to either not function at all or the dimmer switch will not dim or shut off the lights.
The risk
The switch may become very hot and melt the plastic housing of the switch possibly resulting in a fire.
The fix
Dealers will inspect and verify the switch is wired correctly. The switch will be tested to determine if it turns the lights on, dims the lights, and shuts them off. If the switch does not pass this function test, it will be replaced and wired accordingly free of charge. The recall began on march 18, 2005. Owners may contact keystone at 866-425-4369.
