The Hazard!

The lights on the trailer can fail to function due to a variation in the conenction of the wires in the coil.

If the lights on the back of a heavy vehicle trailer fail to function (eg fail to illuminate) without the driver knowing, and if another vehicle behind thereby fails to see the trailer at night or notice the vehicle slowing or stopping, there is a risk of a crash occuring.

What to do...

B8 recommends that owners, with one of the potentially affected products manufactured in 2021, stop using the unit, and contact B8 for inspection and repair/replacement. 

Contact B8 (Erich Jaeger Asia Pacific and Africa) for any questions or more information.
