What the ministry says is wrong

運転者席のドアに取り付けられている電動式ドアミラースイッチに雨水等が侵入した状態 でスイッチ操作を行うと、スイッチ内部が短絡することがあり、最悪の場合、火災に至る おそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、当該スイッチの配線にヒューズを取り付ける。

The two passages above are quoted in Japanese because that is the language the ministry published them in. This site keeps the wording a register had when it was read, and does not translate a safety notice.

This site gathered the record, grouped it by notification number and set it in English around the ministry's own words; the notice itself is unaltered.
