AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2015-04-07

PRODUCT: Certain Boeing Model 767-200 and -300 series airplanes equipped with Pratt & Whitney Model JT9D or PW4000 engines.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY:  This AD was prompted by a report of several cases of low hydraulic pressure or loss of electrical power to the alternating current motor pump (ACMP) on the left engine.

This AD requires inspecting for damage of the wiring bundles in the left engine's strut and corrective actions if necessary, and installing new wire support brackets and bundle clamps.

The FAA is issuing this AD to detect and correct chafed wire bundles due to rubbing against structure or a hydraulic piping elbow, which could result in electrical arcing in a flammable fluid leakage zone, and provide a possible ignition source for fuel vapors and hydraulic fluids. Ignited fuel vapors or hydraulic fluid in an area without a fire detection or suppression system could result in an uncontained engine strut fire and structural damage to the engine strut.

DATES: This AD is effective April 13, 2015.
