What was found

DOOR 2 RIGHT SLIDE BOTTLE PRESSURE LOW. IT WAS DETERMINED THAT ANY ONE OF THE FACTORS IN THE OPERATING ENVIRONMENT (VIBRATION, DOOR OPENING/CLOSING, CARTS IMPACTING DOORS, TEMPERATURE & PRESSURE CHANGES) COULD HAVE RESULTED IN BOTTLE LEAK. BOTTLE WAS REQUALIFIED IN THE SHOP BY REPLACING ALL SEALS. SLIDE BOTTLES ARE CHECKED BEFORE EACH FLIGHT TO ENSURE THAT PRESSURE IS NORMAL. REPLACED SLIDE.
