## Discrepancy

FLT CREW REPORTED A STRONG ELECTRICAL-TYPE ODOR NEAR ROW 17 & AFT GALLEY AREA ENROUTE FOR LAST 30 MINS OF FLT & AFTER LANDING.  FOUND SEB ON ROW 17 DEF BAD.  DEFERRED LIVE TV SYS PER MEL 44-20-01AA,  SEB AT 17E REPLACED PER LTV AMM 44-25-00 AND OPS CHECKED GOOD.    PERFORMED SYS INTEGRITY CHK PER LTV AMM 44-25-00.  NO DEFECTS NOTED.  A REPORT WAS RECEIVED FROM LIVE TV ON THE INVESTIGATION INTO THE FAILURE OF SEB.  AN INTERNAL SHORT WITHIN SEB TRANSFORMER T2 CAUSED +15VDC TO BE DELIVERED TO +5VDC CIRCUIT.  THIS OVER-VOLTAGE TO +5VDC CIRCUIT CAUSED SEVERAL CAPACITORS LOCATED ON UNIT CIRCUIT CARD ASSY TO BE THERMALLY STRESSED.  ELECTRICAL ODOR EXPERIENCED ON ACFT ATTRIBUTED TO THERMAL STRESS OF THE CAPACITORS.
