What was found

DURING CRUISE THE RIGHT MCDU SCREEN WENT DARK. THE FMC APPEARS TO BE OPERATING NORMALLY WHEN MAKING A CHANGE ON THE LEFT MCDU THAT REQUIRES AN EXECUTE, THE EXECUTE LIGHT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE ON THE RIGHT MCDU. WE SUSPECT THE MCDU IS INOPERABLE. GROUNDED - YES. REMOVED AND REPLACED FMCS CONTROL DISPLAY UNIT, REF B737-900 AMM 34-61-01. OPS CHECK PASSED, NO FAULTS NOTED AT THIS TIME. OKAY FOR SERVICE.
