The buses are equipped with a Ricon manufactured wheelchair lift which has an optional armored pendant cable. The cable may have been installed such that it doesn't clear the wheelchair lift and without a protective cover, or a misinstalled protective cover.
Consequence
The cable may contact the power lug at the base of the wheel chair lift causing a short circuit that could result in a fire.
