III. PREPARATION

IV. BACKGROUND

During assembly of the contact-type stop lamp switch into the vehicle, silicon grease may have come into contact with the surface of the switch. If the grease reaches the contact surface inside the switch, silica may be generated, and the contact resistance could increase. If this occurs, warning lamps could be illuminated, a no start condition could result, or the shift lever may not shift from the "Park" position. In some cases, the vehicle stop lamps could become inoperative. This could increase the risk of a crash.
