What was found

THE CREW REPORTED THAT DURING PREFLIGHT CHECKS THAT THE AFT AIR CONDITIONING EVAP BLOWER FAILED. THIS WAS THE THIRD FAULT WITH THIS AFT EVAP BLOWER SYS. THIS DISCREPANCY WAS WRITTEN AFTER 6.9HRS OF OPERATIONS AFTER THE AFT BLOWER ASSEMBLY WAS REPLACED WITH NEW. TROUBLESHOOTING COULD NOT DETERMINE A CAUSE OF THE FAULT, THE SYS WAS OPERATING CORRECTLY. IN AN EFFORT TO DETERMINE THE FAULT THE ACFT SELECT SWITCH S1081 & THE AFT EVAPORATOR FAN SWITCH S1080 WERE REPLACED. AFTER 12 HOURS OF OPERATIONS NO DEFECTS HAVE BEEN REPORTED.
