Reinstall the D/C Cut Fuse (10A) into its original location and clear ALL related Diagnostic Trouble Codes (DTCs) during Pre-Delivery Service (PDS).

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
