Van Hool regularly receives questions regarding the bolts securing the wheel suspension arms of the front axle and tag axles to the chassis. The purpose of this service information bulletin is to inform and is partly a reminder of what already is mentioned in the maintenance manual.
EQUIPMENT:ELECTRICAL
Service Information: In its production process, Bock, manufacturer of refrigerant compressors, has switched to a new type of motor protection switch for the electric motor of the refrigerant compressor. As the MP10 motor protection switch (VH11472802) is no longer made available as a spare part, as of now you will receive the new INT69G motor protection switch (VH11691810) when ordering. The MP10 and the INT69G are interchangeable, but fastening and electric connection are different.
WHEELS
Product Improvement: ALL VEHICLES WITH LIGHT-ALLOY WHEELS - Introduction of wheel-end monitoring system (WEM). Van Hool has released a wheel-end monitoring system (WEM) which can be installed on all vehicles equipped with light-alloy wheels. The WEM is installed at the outboard side of the wheel and monitors vibrations produced by the wheel bearing. It warns in case of bearing raceway spalling by flashing a red LED on the unit. The WEM is delivered with a magnet which is used to change from "transport" to "standstill" mode.

Service Information - Maintenance operations related to refrigerant compressor oil This service information bulletin is a reminder/update about refrigerant compressor oil maintenance. To ensure a reliable system, it is important to perform the maintenance on a regular base as mentioned further on.
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
