## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED: AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO PHL DUE TO THE FLIGHT CREW REPORTED AN ENGINE 1 EPR MODE FAULT IN FLIGHT, WITH DEGRADE N1 MODE ACTIVE.

MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE #1 ENGINE RELAY BOX 4100KS PER AMM 71-51-49 AND ACCOMPLISHED A SATISFACTORY OPERATIONAL CHECK WITH NO FAULTS NOTED.
