Window Lights are causing passenger complains and trouble for the maintenance technicians. Boeing has
recommendations, but these lights are found to be very hot after operation for a long period of time. We suspect
the heat caused during power on period cause the soldering to be defective and then cause the blinking.

How can be sure that the window light should not blink after a time, moreover what does B/E Aerospace offer to
detect the failure in Shop and to solve after then?

Other operators, Boeing comments please!

71 Repairability/Repair Attendant Collins B787 33 LHT JAL, ACA

Services Switch Panel Aerospace
3D8000-X

LHT has observed multiple instances of “non-repairable” Attendant Switch Panels after failure of internal
components. Collins claims that, while the CMM offers repair instructions, it is not possible to access the
component without permanent damage after removing sealants/epoxy. While it is still unclear whether a repair
without permanent damage is actually possible the issue raises concerns either way.

We believe components should be designed in a way that repairs of expectable failures are possible. As failure of
internal electronics are expectable for panels, we expect that the LRU’s design does not unnecessarily hinder
such repairs.

As the CMM has a repair section which claims that disassembly is possible we expect OEM’s to offer repair
services to the full extent of the CMM.

Boeing, Collins, other operators, please comment.
