Concern

Fire in auxiliary heater wiring loom

Defect, as DVSA words it

Electrical fault in the 24 volt supply to the auxiliary heater resulted in a fire.

Remedy, as DVSA words it

INTERIM REMEDY:- Disconnect and insulate the electrical supply to the heater and turn off the fuel supply tap.

What changed since we first read it

Nothing yet. The wording has been the same on every read since 4 September 2026. The file is read again every day; if DVSA rewrites the defect, remedy or concern, the old and new text will appear here with both dates.

The same recall in other registers

No match found in the American, Canadian or European registers by manufacturer reference, because DVSA lists none for this recall. A recall can exist abroad under a different reference; this site only claims a match when the reference agrees.
