## Discrepancy

EMERGENCY LIGHTING: DURING POST FLIGHT INSPECTION, WE DISCOVERED THAT THE #3 AND #7 SEAT OVERHEAD AND FLOOR LEVEL EMERGENCY LIGHTS WERE INOPERATIVE IN BOTH THE EMER LIGHT ARM, AND ON SWITCH POSITIONS. WE BELEIVE THESE LIGHTS ARE ASSOCIATED WITH EMERGENCY BATTERY PACKS #2 AND #3 NOT CHARGING PROPERLY. LIGHTS FUNCTION PROPERLY WHEN MAIN SHIP BATTERIES ARE TURNED ON. COMPLIED WITH TASK TC-FLT-33-1001 AND FOUND EMERGENCY BATTERIES #2 & #3 REQUIRE REPLACEMENT. STANDING BY FOR PARTS. (JH,HM - 11/18/24) COMPLIED WITH TASK TC-FLT-33-1001 AND FOUND EMERGENCY BATTERIES #2 & #3 REQUIRE REPLACEMENT. STANDING BY FOR PARTS. (JH,HM - 11/18/24) REMOVED AND REPLACED #2 AND #3 EMERGENCY BATTERIES WITH "REPAIRED" JAW CE-680A MM 33-50-00.
