• 10248730This service bulletin provides you with information about the location of emergency side window decals so that the vehicle meets the National Highway Traffic Safety Administrations (NHTSA) Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS) in the U.S and the Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (CMVSS) in Canada about this subject.
• 10247503DESCRIPTION Van Hool has been informed about a harmless phenomenon regarding the front entrance door when the air suspension raising system is activated. Investigation has shown that when the raising system is activated, air is pulled out of the front passenger compressedair circuit causing the quick release valve in that circuit to a momentary switch. This can be noticed by a short soft sound of escaping air. This service bulletin gives step-by-step instructions how to install an additional singlecheck valve to prevent this phenomenon from happening.
• 10244199DESCRIPTION: Van Hool has determined that some of the seven fasteners securing the automatic belt tensioner base plate are subject to slackening. Tests have shown that these fasteners must be installed with Loctite 243 and tightened to a torque of 90 10 Nm (65 7 ft.lbf). To address this issue, Van Hool is conducting a field change program whereby the seven fasteners must be removed and checked one by one for length and thread pitch (1.75 mm). What to do next is explained in this service bulletin
• 10242220SUBJECT : Engine overheating due to an open or not properly closed access door with electric cooling fans CONDITIONS : This service bulletin does not entitle to any reimbursement. Your vehicle is equipped with electric cooling fans located at the inside of the access doors of the radiator and charge-air cooler compartment. To prevent personal injury due to running fans, a safety system with proximity switches prevents the cooling fans from running when the access door is open or not properly closed. The cooling system will in that case not operate causing possible overheating of the engine when this situation continues for a longer time. To prevent this from happening, it is important to follow the guideline below:
• 10237604Van Hool has introduced in production a lower value resistor in the defroster fan speed control circuit to improve windshield demisting. Customers who want to install this resistor can follow the step-by-step instructions mentioned in this service bulletin.
• 10235083Incorrect position of high-pressure switch and test connection on refrigerant compressor discharge service valve Van Hool has determined that the position of the high-pressure switch and the test connection on the refrigerant compressor discharge service valve has been incorrectly placed during the assembly process. The result is that the high-pressure protection system of the refrigerant circuit is not working when the discharge valve is in its normal running position (refer to figure 3 for service valve positions). To address this issue, Van Hool is conducting a field change program, the terms and conditions of which are explained further on under Warranty. Owners and operators of the affected units should first check the position of the high-pressure switch and, if necessary, modify the placement.
• 10233467Service Information: In its production process, Bock, manufacturer of refrigerant compressors, has switched to a new type of motor protection switch for the electric motor of the refrigerant compressor. As the MP10 motor protection switch (VH11472802) is no longer made available as a spare part, as of now you will receive the new INT69G motor protection switch (VH11691810) when ordering. The MP10 and the INT69G are interchangeable, but fastening and electric connection are different.
• 10219652Product Improvement: ALL VEHICLES WITH LIGHT-ALLOY WHEELS - Introduction of wheel-end monitoring system (WEM). Van Hool has released a wheel-end monitoring system (WEM) which can be installed on all vehicles equipped with light-alloy wheels. The WEM is installed at the outboard side of the wheel and monitors vibrations produced by the wheel bearing. It warns in case of bearing raceway spalling by flashing a red LED on the unit. The WEM is delivered with a magnet which is used to change from "transport" to "standstill" mode.

• 10209998Product Improvement: Introduction of new generation DEF tank sensor unit Some previous manufactured DEF tank sensor units are no longer available as spare part. This service bulletin gives you information about the visual points of difference between the generations and which one to order in case of replacement. Most of the replacements are direct fit, except for the sensor units with an asterisk in the table which must be secured with a split mounting ring consisting of two halves instead of the original closed mounting ring.
• 10209994Service Information - Introduction of new 4/2 solenoid valve in compressed-air circuit Van Hool has switched over into production to a new type of 4/2 solenoid valve in the compressed-air system. As the previous Knorr-Bremse (Bosch) solenoid valve (VH11102170) is no longer made available as spare part, customers will receive a Wabco solenoid valve (VH660526759) when ordering. Both valves are interchangeable, but some differences must be considered. Consult the information in this service bulletin for a proper installation.
