[2] Part number dependent upon which overbraiding method is used and size desired. A. Procedure Sign Off (1) Inspection CAUTION: FOLLOW ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS WHEN WORK IS DONE AROUND AN OPEN FUEL TANK OR INJURY TO PERSONAL AND OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT CAN OCCUR. (a) Perform an inspection of the flaps to determine if the overbraid has been applied to the wire harness. Refer to AMM-27-50-00-021-801 - FLAPS - INSPECTION/CHECK. (b) If the overbraid is present then the bulletin is complete. If there is no overbraid, then proceed to 3.A.(2) Electrical Harness Rework to Add Overbraid, as follows. 39-120496 Electrical Harness Rework Part Number Description Qty M39029/56-351[1] 22 Gauge Socket D38999 3 800-008-06M5-3SN[1] Connector, Series 80 Plug (27R01P01) 1 809-002[1] 22 Gauge Series 80 Socket 3 M27500-22SD3T23[1] 22 Gauge Twisted Triple Wire 13 ft.

connector (27A03P01) to Flap Position Potentiometer electrical connector (27R01P01). NOTE: Optional step: Wrap the unsleeved wire in teflon tape prior to sleeving through the overbraid. 2. If wire P/N M27500-22SD3T23 can remain in service, cut to fit overbraid sleeving P/N 1233/2 at least 150 inches and sleeve existing wire through overbraid. NOTE: Optional step: Wrap the unsleeved wire in teflon tape prior to sleeving through the overbraid. ECLIPSE Service Bulletin Issued: 24 March 2016 – Rev A SB 500-57-012 © 2016 ECLIPSE AEROSPACE INC. Page 5 of 13 (c) Tie new wire & existing bundle together to existing tie mounts (refer to Figure 1) and no more than 6 inches apart to secure between the attach points using tie straps P/N MS3367-()-0, PLT()-76. (d) At the inboard flap actuator (27A03P01; Figure 2), the overbraid band is removed and the overbraid is pulled back to allow access to the connector. Refer to Wiring Repair Manual, “Band Removal”. One of three methods will be used to re-terminate the overbraid: Method 1 Reattach overbraid to backshell and reband if practical. • Method 1 will be used if the existing overbraid at the inboard flap actuator (27A03P01) is sufficiently long enough to re-band after the new wiring is added. This is the preferred method. Method 2 Wiring Repair Manual, “Shield Support Banding Ring”. • Method 2 requires adding overbraid sleeving P/N 1233/2. Method 3 Wiring Repair Manual, “Unaided Overlap”. • Method 3 requires adding overbraid sleeving P/N 1233/2. (e) Trim to finish length, and terminate at inboard flap actuator connector 27A03P01 using contact P/N M39029/56-351 as follows: Contact / Conductor • P / FCI0220-22 BL • Y / FCI0220-22 OR • X / FCI0220-22 WH • Backshell / FCI0220-22 SH (shield) If overbraid termination method 1 or 2 is used, continue at step (f). If method 3 is used, either step (f) or step (g) can apply. (f) No closer than 1 inch to the backshell, route the wire through the overbraid. This is accomplished using an awl or similar tool to pierce a hole through the overbraid so the wire can be run through it. Attach overbraid to 27A03P01 using banding material PNs A10088, A10089, A31189 or A31089 or equivalent. Continue at step 6. (g) Skip this step if overbraid termination method 1 or 2 is used (step (e)). The wiring may route between the existing overbraid and the added overbraid sleeving before applying the tie straps PN MS3367-()-0, PLT()-76. Attach overbraid to 27A03P01 using banding material PNs A10088, A10089, A31189 or A31089 or equivalent. (h) If overbraid termination method 2 or 3 was used, insure an adequate electrical bond between the two sections of overbraid (no greater than 2.5 mili Ohm).

(3) Electrical Harness Rework to Add Overbraid, RH Parts Required: [1] If needed. [2] Part number dependent upon which overbraiding method is used and size desired. (i) Trim to finish length and terminate at flap position potentiometer connector 27R01P01 (Figure 3) using contact P/N 809-002 as follows: Contact / Conductor • B / FCI0220-22 BL • C / FCI0220-22 OR • A / FCI0220-22 WH • Backshell / FCI0220-22 SH (shield) using metal banding material PNs A10088, A10089, A31189 or A31089 or equivalent. NOTE: Finished length is ~143 inches. (j) Apply a 2 inch piece of heat shrink tubing (TAT-125-1/2) over the backshell and metal overbraiding of connector and shrink in place (Figure 4). (k) Slide a second 2 inch piece of heat shrink tubing (tat-125-1/2) past connector (Figure 4). (l) Connect the electrical connector and torque jam nut (15) to 35-45 lbf.in (4.0-5.1 Nm). (m) Position second piece of heat shrink tubing (TAT-125-1/2) over complete connector (19, Figure 4) and shrink in place. (n) Safety the connector (20, Figure 4) to angle bracket with new .020 dia. lockwire (MS20995C20). (o) Seal exposed area of connector (Figure 4) with PRC-Desoto epoxy sealant (PR-2001).
