## Discrepancy

ELECTRIC BURNING SMELL IN COCKPIT.  *S/D*  THE CONTROL DISPLAY UNIT (CDU) WAS REPLACED WITH NO EVIDENCE OF CONTINUED BURNING ODOR IN AFFECTED AREA.  THE REMOVED CDU WAS INSPECTED AND TESTED WHICH IDENTIFIED A LOOSE LOCKING  INSIDE THE CHASSIS ASSEMBLY, BUT NO EVIDENCE OF BURNT OR DISCOLORED ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS FOUND.
