TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 22-001
V‐MUX Hercules Hi Content Node HC1.5
22-001 Customer Care PH. 800.228.1161
May 6, 2022
IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL INFORMATION
NHTSA RECALL 22 E 037
This notice is sent to you in accordance with the National Traffic and Motor
Vehicle Safety Act. Weldon, a division of Akron Brass Company , has decided a
safety related defect may exist with some Hercules HC 1.5 I/O Nodes, Weldon
Part Number 6060‐1000‐00 produced between January 21, 2022 and April 29,
2022. In the affected products, a termination resistor was installed on the
CAN ports. In this configuration and when combined with external resistors
located in a harness or with multiple nodes that do not have external resistors, CAN communication may become
compromised which can impact any of the electrical loads that are connected to the CAN, including vehicle lighting,
potentially increasing the risk of a crash.
Since V‐MUX systems are configured to match user needs, some installations may not present an issue at initial
acceptance test, but nevertheless should be remedied. You are receiving this notice because Weldon records indicate
you have received shipments of affected units. Please see attached list.
Weldon will remedy the units on the attached list free of charge by replacing them with Hercules HC 1.6 that has the
same functionality as the Hercules 1.5, but does not include the internal terminator resistor. The affected units must
be returned to Weldon under RMA to be converted to the HC 1.6. Once converted, they will go thru production test
before being returned. Nodes will require OEM programming which can be done by USB thumb drive. Warranty labor
of 0.5 hour per node at standard rates will be reimbursed to remove and replace a Hercules HC Node installed in a
customer’s vehicle.
Affected Part Hercules HC 1.5 Part Number 6060‐1000‐00
Replacement Part Hercules HC 1.6 Part Number 6060‐1010‐00
Please contact Barbara Gallick [email protected] or your local Weldon representative to obtain an RMA. An RMA
is required for tracking purposes. Do not send units back to Weldon without an RMA number.
Please note that it is a violation of Federal Law to deliver a new motor vehicle or any item of
motor vehicle equipment which is subject to a recall until the remedy has been performed.
If you believe there is a failure to remedy this defect without charge to the end user/owner of the vehicle and within a
reasonable period of time, you may submit a written complaint to the Administrator, NHTSA, 1200 New Jersey Ave,
SE, Washington, DC 20590, or call the Vehicle Safety Hotline 1‐888‐327‐4336 (TTY: 1‐800‐424‐9153) or go to
http://www.safercar.gov.
Thanks for your prompt attention to this matter and continued support of Weldon.

Equipment Information :
Brand / Trade 1 : Weldon
Model : V-mux Hercules HC Node 1.5
Part No. : 6060-1000-00
Size : N/A
Function : NR
Descriptive Information : All of the parts under this part number are are part of the recall as they share the
same build issue. Similar parts with a different part number were built to
specification and are not part of the recall population. There are approximately
72 units delivered under a private label to a single OEM customer and
approximately 788 units delivered to other affected OEMs.
Production Dates : JAN 21, 2022 – APR 29, 2022
Description of Defect :
Description of the Defect : Weldon, a division of Akron Brass Company, produces Node, an electrical
multiplex module, under both a private label to a single customer as well as to
multiple OEMs for installation in emergency vehicles. In the affected products,
the Node contains a termination resistor installed on the node circuit board
instead of the termination resistor being installed only within the electrical
harness. If the vehicle network design has not accounted for this additional
resistor, it may reduce the bus resistance below the defined tolerance levels
and may lead to a loss of data on the CAN network. Installations with multiple
nodes are more likely to experience the condition.
FMVSS 1 : NR
FMVSS 2 : NR
Description of the Safety Risk : If the bus resistence is reduced, the CAN network connection could faill which
may interrupt the transfer of data on this connection. If the CAN network

connection is interrupted or fails and depending on how the vehicle’s
electrical systems are designed, it may impact the operation of various
electrical loads controlled by the Node, including vehicle lighting, which may
increase the risk of a crash.
Description of the Cause : Due to a bill of material error, a resistor installed on the printed circuit board
was inadvertently included

Chronology :
On April 29, 2022, Weldon was contacted by an OEM that described an issue with the CAN connection when
installing the Node. Weldon was able to isolate the issue to the inclusion of the additional termination resistor
on the circuit board. Weldon stopped the shipment of additional units. On May 2, 2022, Weldon reviewed the
technical details affecting the Node to confirm the issue, considered whether the same issue impacts any
similar products and decided to conduct a safety recall. On May 3, 2022, Weldon determined a recent shipment
of a variation of the Node sold under a private label and to a single customer was also impacted. Weldon
confirmed with the customer these units had never been installed in a vehicle and remianed in the customer’s
inventory. Weldon secured all of the affected products from the customer’s inventory and on May 4, 2022
reworked those units to remove the additional resistor.

Description of Remedy :
Description of Remedy Program : Weldon will notify affected customers and ask them to return any affected
product that remains in their inventory to Weldon to be reworked.
Affected OEMs will notify vehicle purchasers and Weldon will provide
replacement units and reimburse for labor costs. The affected product
sold under the private label have already been remedied.
How Remedy Component Differs
from Recalled Component :
The remedy component will have the additional termination resistor
removed from the circuit board.
Identify How/When Recall Condition
was Corrected in Production :
Existing inventory at Weldon was isolated and shipments placed on hold
on 4/29/2022, the same day the potential issue was first reported to
Weldon. Any affected product in Weldon’s inventory will be reworked and
a new part number issued.
Recall Schedule :
Description of Recall Schedule : Weldon will notify its impacted OEM customers as soon as approved by
NHTSA. OEMs will notify vehicle purchasers of the recall and will
conduct all quarterly reporting. Weldon does not have dealers. Weldon
will still file quarterly reports on the progress of the recall as we have the
serial numbers and shipment data to do so.
