## Discrepancy

A HINT OF SMOKE AND BURNING ODOR CAME FROM THE LT FWD OVERHEAD ENTRY LIGHT. THE F/A TURNED OFF THE LIGHT SWITCH AND THE ODOR AND SMOKE DISAPPEARED IMMEDIATELY.  MX FOUND AN ISO SHORT BETWEEN J14 TO J1. THE DAMAGED PIN, NR43 IN J1 CONNECTOR OF F/A PANEL, WAS REPLACED ALONG WITH THE ENTRY LIGHT SOCKET.  SYS OPERATION IS NORMAL.
