• Constant failure rate present for Unscreened and Screened Rectifier

• New high reliability CR1/CR14 part validation completed

− Extensive performance and life testing performed
− Same internal base construction as FADEC2 PSU part

• Service Bulletin 73-0223 issued for fielded EEC introduction

− Current S/B 73-0167 will be superseded by new S/B

• New Sensitron rectifier P/N 364A3172P1 or

Transzorb Function, Failures & Resolution

• Transient-voltage-suppression (TVS) diode (i.e transzorb) is

electronic component used to protect sensitive electronics
from voltage spikes
– Connected to J3/J4 input signals such as Engine Position, Airplane Model,
Alternate mode, Engine Start, Auto Start, Master Lever
– When transzorb fails, becomes resistive therefore indicating that discrete
detected closed switch position
– Failed parts indicating electrical overstress located at mechanical chip-out
‘weak-spots’
– Low-time (infant mortality) failure
• New transzorb supplier (MCC) on board
– Mechanical construction exhibits reduced number of chip-out areas
– New OEM FADECs being built with MCC parts – 2nd Quarter 2016
– Field repairs being performed with new supplier parts

S/B 73-0196 MCB MN82 Rework

• Aircraft Level Symptoms:

– Internal EEC Fault messages (Various)

• Failure Mode:
– Mechanical failure of solder joints on MN82 leads
• No IFSD or operational events associated

• Configurations Affected:
– AW7 MCB FADEC Level P/N: 2042M67P04 and P/N 2044M16P04
– Contains AW7 MCB P/N: 392-251-101-0

• Field Action:
– Perform Service Bulletin 73-0196 to replace MN82
with new part secured with Eccobonding on corners

Avoid unscheduled removal by scheduling S/B

S/B 73-0184 PSM T2/T4 Transformer
Category 5: Do as soon as EEC removed from engine
Condition: Solder cracks on pins of T2 and T4 transformers on power supply units led to functional
failures. Intermittent distortion and speed test failures experienced when running ATP tests.
CAUSE: Scotchweld 2216 epoxy used to bond T2 and T4 transformer identified as root cause of solder
cracks on leads. Average time to failure is 15-20K hours.
IMPROVEMENT: PSU T2 and T4 transformers along with Scotchweld 2216 epoxy removed. New T2 and
T4 transformers installed with no Scotchweld 2216 applied around perimeter.

S/B 73-0182 ASELEC MCB MN76
Category 2: Do as soon as possible without effect on revenue service:
MN76 • Within 12 months for EECs listed in SB TABLE 1 (25 EECs)
• Within 36 months for EECs listed in SB TABLE 2 (309 EECs)
• S/B issued September 2011 – Field compliance at 65%
CAUSE: Champagne voids in Bridge BGA solder balls on MCB degrade integrity of solder
connections
IMPROVEMENT: Bridge BGA (MN76) on MCB removed along with solder and replaced with new
solder and new BGA
