## Discrepancy

AIRCRAFT WAS GROUNDED: AN EMERGENCY WAS DECLARED AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO ORD DUE TO THE FLIGHT CREW REPORTING THAT ON TAKEOFF BEFORE FLAP RETRACTION, THEY RECEIVED AN ECAM MESSAGE FOR ENGINE 1 HIGH RISK EGT. ENGINE SHOWED OVERTEMP. EGT WAS CONSIDERABLY HIGHER THAN THE OTHER ENGINE FOR THE ENTIRE FLIGHT AND TAXI IN. THE AIRCRAFT LANDED SAFELY AT ORD AND TAXIED TO THE GATE UNDER ITS OWN POWER. MAINTENANCE FOUND BOTH LOWER EGT THERMOCOUPLES 4012KS2 (AALA202407053143) AND 4012KS3 (AALA202407052331) DAMAGED ON THE #1 ENGINE. MAINTENANCE REPLACED THE THERMOCOUPLES AND ACCOMPLISHED A SATISFACTORY OPERATIONAL CHECK PER AMM 77-21-15.
