Bulletin: 91-8-54Date: July '92
Ref. No.: 91-298-8
Corp. Ref. No.: 108117R
SUBJECT:
INOPERATIVE POWER ACCESSORIES (REVISED TO INCLUDE TERMINAL REPLACEMENT)
MODELS AFFECTED:
1991 PARK AVENUE/ULTRA
THIS BULLETIN IS BEING REVISED TO INCLUDE TERMINAL REPLACEMENT. PLEASE DISCARD BULLETIN NUMBER 91-8-39 DATED JULY, 1991 AND REPLACE IT WITH THIS ONE.
CONDITION:
Some 1991 Park Avenue/Ultras built prior to VIN M1642468 may exhibit a condition where the power windows, sunroof, memory seat/mirrors, power door locks, power seats, remote keyless entry, automatic door locks and/or rear defogger does not operate.
CAUSE:
The cause of this condition is the number 3 and/or 4 circuit breaker in the I/P fuse block not making proper contact in the fuse block. A change was made at the start of production in the terminal used for the fuse block on the 1991 Park Avenue/Ultra. A corresponding change to the circuit breaker to adapt to these new terminals did not occur. This old style circuit breaker will not reach far enough into the fuse block to make good contact.
CORRECTION:
To correct the above condition, a new circuit breaker should be used in positions 3 and 4 of the instrument panel fuse block. The old circuit breaker can be identified by a stamped "240" on the case and an unfinished aluminum color. The new circuit breaker can be identified by a green color and the part number 12040832 stamped on the case.
The fuse block terminals must also be replaced to insure proper contact of the circuit breaker. Part Number 12084587 (20 per pkg.) services both terminals.
PARTS INFORMATION:
The new circuit breaker is currently available from GMSPO.
The fuse block terminals are expected to be available on July 27, 1992. In case of limited inventory, parts will be placed on 400 control to waive VIP surcharges. Only verifiable emergency VIP orders will be accepted. SPO will make every effort to obtain parts. However, the part will be shipped premium transportation at dealer's expense and all other order types will be placed on backorder until the 400 control is removed.
