## Discrepancy

FOUND LEFT WING AILERON INTERCONNECT CONTROL CABLE EXCESSIVELY WORN DUE TO RUBBING ON FAIRLEADS THROUGHOUT AIRCRAFT. VERIFIED PROPER CABLE ROUTING AND RIGGING. CABLE WAS REPLACED 1848 HOURS AGO AND 1405 HOURS PRIOR TO THAT DUE TO SAME ISSUE. CONTACTED MANUFACTURER AND DETERMINED THERE IS NO APPROVED REPAIR OR ALTERATION TO FIX THIS ISSUE OTHER THAN REPLACING CABLE. REPLACED CABLE AGAIN AND PROPERLY RIGGED.
