## Discrepancy

COULD NOT GET ELEVATOR TRIM TO RIG RIGHT.  INVESTIGATED AND CONSULTED WITH TECH SUPPORT AT MFG AND DETERMINED INCORRECT PN PLACARD WAS INSTALLED ON TRIM WHEEL.  THE INSTALLED PLACARD PN 624104-1, TECH SUPPORT CONFIRMED THIS PN WAS FOR DIFFERENT ACFT.  TAKEOFF POSITION MARKING ALSO CONFIRMED THIS.  CORRECT PN 58-524029.  THIS PROBLEM WOULD CAUSE INCORRECT TAKEOFF TRIM POSITION AND POSSIBLY IMPROPER RIGGING.  CA SHOULD BE SB PUT OUT TO CHECK PROPPER PLACARD INSTALLATION. (K)
