What's wrong?
The electrical system in these 2010 Winnebago Sightseer D33C, Vista E30W, Sunstar E30W, and Sunova D33C motor homes includes 120V household-style wiring for installed equipment and ordered options. That wiring is supposed to carry power only through completed circuits, with connectors covered so an owner or technician cannot touch a live conductor.
In affected motor homes, a wire assembly for an option that was not ordered or installed was left in place as part of an incomplete 120V circuit. The circuit can become energized even though the option is missing. The connector at the end of that circuit is uncovered, leaving an opening where someone can make contact with energized wiring.
There is no warning sign before failure. An owner is not expected to hear, smell, or see a clear signal before the exposed connector becomes a contact hazard.
