Alpina · ALPINA B3 / D3

A contact defect can develop over time due to friction corrosion on the plug connection between the cable harness and the fan controller. The insulation of the cable harness can therefore become damaged over time, which could trigger a short circuit. This could result in a vehicle fire, even if the car is parked.
