The defect

The dual battery system may contain improper wiring in that one wire may have been run to the 110 volt circuit which should have been run to the 12 volt circuit. If an affected unit should be connected to the 110 volt power source without the use of a properly grounded cord, the metal skin could become "hot".

The remedy

The dealer will correct the wiring defect by running the wire to the 12 volt circuit free of charge.
