## Discrepancy

(CAN) ON INSPECTION OF THE ENGINE FIRE EXTINGUISHER ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, IT WAS NOTED THAT THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER MICROSWITCH ON THE PANEL ACTIVATING BUTTON HAD COME OFF THE HOLDING CLIP, RENDERING THE BUTTON INOPERATIVE. THE SWITCH MANUFACTURER - RAYTHEON - INDICATES THAT A REPLACEMENT SWITCH IS BEING PRODUCED.
