REMOVE CERTAIN 1712448
SOLENOIDS FROM PARTS
STOCK
5479 PI70015

TERMINATION DATE
February 28, 2001

PROBLEM
Certain 1712448 solenoids having a date code of week 13 of the year
2000 or earlier are susceptible to failure caused by moisture and
should be removed from dealer stock. A new seal in the plastic
connector block for the solenoid significantly improves the service
life of the solenoid by preventing moisture entry.

ACTION REQUIRED
Inspect all 1712448 Solenoids for date codes of Week 13, 2000 or
earlier. The date code can be found on top of the solenoid. Remove
the solenoids from dealer stock.
