## Discrepancy

ON SHORT AND FINAL TO THE HOSPITAL, PILOT AND CREW NOTICED A BURNING SMELL COMING FROM THE AC VENTS, UPON LANDING AND SHUTDOWN THE SMELL DISSIPATED. MAINTENANCE WAS CALLED AND NOTICED A SMALL RESIDUE AROUND A POWER CONNECTION TO THE AFT EVAP BLOWER MOTOR THAT SMELLED A LITTLE BURNT. UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION THE BLOWER MOTOR WAS FOUND TO NOT BE WORKING AND HAD A REALLY HIGH RESISTANCE. ORDERED A NEW AFT EVAP BLOWER MOTOR.
