## Discrepancy

ON CLIMB OUT, AFTER TAKE-OFF, CREW REPORTED THE COPILOTS YOKE BECOMES DISCONNECTED FROM THE PILOTS YOKE IN RT TURNS.  ACFT DIVERTED AND LANDED SAFELY.  CREW REPORTED NO EICAS MESSAGE INDICATING A PROBLEM.  UPON ARRIVING AT MX, CONFIRMED THE YOKE WAS DISCONNECTED.  MX WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE DISCREPANCY REPEATEDLY; WHEN TURNING FULL RT ON THE GROUND, THE COPILOTS YOKE BECAME DISCONNECTED FROM THE PILOTS YOKE; THEN WHEN TURNING THE COPILOTS YOKE TO THE LT, IT RECONNECTED AUTOMATICALLY.  ADDITIONALLY, MX FOUND IT DIFFICULT TO MANUALLY DISCONNECT THE COPILOTS YOKE ONCE RE-CONNECTED USING THE MANUAL DISENGAGE MECHANISM.  ULTIMATELY, MX FOUND THE SPOILER DISCONNECT BEARING WORN AND THE MECHANICAL DISCONNECT MECHANISM OUT OF RIG.
