Reported risk: On certain vehicles equipped with RPO KNC (onan 6.0 Kw generator). The 110 volt ac conduit on the onan generator may contact the positive battery terminal or starter solenoid post resulting in a short circuit. Also, the 110 volt ac conduit and cable insulation may wear through from contact with the negative battery terminal causing a short circuit. This shorting will damage wiring and can result in a fire even if the onan generator is not operating. The fire could burn the generator fuel supply hose resulting in a gasoline fed fire that could spread to the passenger compartment.
