 Magneto (K03, K02 & U69) – Major Field Complaint of Stator coil burnt issue field failure sample joint
study done along with suppliers to identify the root cause. Actions identified and implemented in 3
phases.
o Phase 1: Introduction of sleeve for stator coil 3rd phase
o Phase 2: Cover Magneto Machining to reduce the rib height and to avoid short circuit with stator
coil by benchmarking the product design
o Phase 3: Staggered Design Stator coil & Bobbin height increase are the additional changes for
field failure issues

 Gear position sensor (K03, K02 & U69) – Water Entry Field failure actions has been addressed thru
sealant SI5910 application on the grommet area. RTV 9186 application on the IC & Potting solution
