What the ministry says is wrong

 電気装置において、整流器が取付位置不適切のため、排気管からの輻射熱により、内部 のはんだに亀裂を生じて電圧制御機能が損われることがあり、バッテリーが過充電状態と なり電解液が減少し、その機能が損なわれて電気回路に過電圧がかかり、前照灯等の灯火 器類が点灯しなくなるとともに、速度計および走行距離計が正常に作動しなくなり、原動 機が停止して再始動が出来なくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

 全車両、バッテリーボックスおよび整流器を対策品と交換する。

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.

Source: Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism website (出典:国土交通省ウェブサイト), used under the Public Data License 1.0. 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. CarsMultiverse is not the ministry and not a safety authority. To act on this notice, use the ministry's own document.

The Japanese register on this site

ヤマハ elsewhere in this register

ヤマハ is named on 181 notices in the copy of MLIT’s register held here, of which these are the nearest to this one in time.

The same part: その他(電気装置)

202 notices in this register name その他(電気装置). A defect that keeps returning under one heading is worth reading as a group rather than one notice at a time.

Reading this against the source

This page is what MLIT published in the recall notices it publishes, kept as it was read. The authority publishes only its current wording; if a notice is rewritten, the earlier version disappears there and is kept here. The whole register is at /japan, and how the reading is done is set out in the method.

This register keeps an index of its own for every maker and every year it holds: Japanese recalls on a Yamaha: 186 in the register, and 220 Japanese vehicle recall notifications filed in 2002.
