Summary

Pierce Manufacturing "Pierce" is recalling certain 2022 M2-106, M2-112, and F550 fire trucks equipped with Weldon V-mux Hercules HC Node 1.5 electrical multiplex modules. An additional resistor was incorrectly installed on the printed circuit board, which can disrupt CAN network communication and cause vehicle lighting to fail.
