## Discrepancy

PILOT REPORTS BLEED LOOP FAULT.  UPON FURTHER INSPECTION SENT MDC DOWNLOAD OFF TO BOMBARDIER, WAS INFORMED TO LOOK AT BLEED LOOP MT118 AND FOUND HIGH CONTINUITY BETWEEN CONNECTOR AND JUNCTION.  REMOVED AND REPLACED CONNECTOR INSULATOR, AFTER INSULATOR WAS REPLACED CONNECTOR CONTINUITY OPERATIONS CHECKED GOOD AND AIRCRAFT WAS OK FOR RETURN TO SERVICE.
