What's wrong?
The affected part is the ICM Controls ICM870-16A-BH5400 Series Soft Start in the air conditioner on the 2024 Genesis Supreme Fifth Wheel. A soft start is an electronic control that helps the air conditioner compressor start with less electrical strain. When it works correctly, the compressor starts smoothly and the air conditioner cools the RV cabin normally.
In NHTSA campaign 25V680, the soft start device can fail and overheat. GE Appliances and ICM Controls were still investigating the exact failure mechanism, but available information pointed to an unknown design or manufacturing defect in soft start devices manufactured before the spring of 2024. If the device overheats, it can smoke, breach its plastic enclosure, destroy the soft start, or cause localized heat damage near the air conditioner.
An owner can notice the air conditioner cycling too often, stopping its cooling, or losing compressor operation. Smoke or a burning odor from inside the RV cabin or from the roof-mounted air conditioner housing are warning signs.

What's the safety risk?
An overheated soft start device in the air conditioner increases the risk of a fire.

Repair is free at any franchised Genesis Supreme dealer.
