Japan — Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism

What the ministry says is wrong

速度計において、車速信号用アンプの取り付け位置が不適切なため、当該アンプがトランスミッション等からの強い振動を受ける場合がある。そのため、そのままの状態で使用を続けると、当該アンプの内部素子が破損し、正常な速度表示が出来なくなるおそれがある。

What is to be done about it

全車両、シャシフレームに固定金具を追加し、当該アンプを移設するとともに、アンプが破損している場合は新品に交換する。

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.

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.
