## Discrepancy

NEW PROPELLER DE-ICE HEAT LEADS WERE PURCHASED FROM DISTRIBUTER.  THESE LEADS WERE IN THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER PACKAGING.  WHEN THE PACKAGE WAS OPENED AND LEADS INSPECTED, FOUND OF THE 5 PACKAGED LEADS, 2 LEADS HAD LOOSE TERMINAL ENDS THAT WERE EASILY PULLED LOOSE FROM THE WIRE.  DISTRIBUTER WAS INFORMED AND ADVISED TO CHECK THEIR STOCK. THEY INDICATED THEY WOULD ADVISE MANUFATURER.
