## Discrepancy

CREW REPORTED THAT THE AUTOFEATHER FUNCTION DID NOT ARM DURING THE TAKEOFF ROLL.  CREW ABORTED THE TAKEOFF AT LOW SPEED AND RETURNED TO GATE WITHOUT INCIDENT.  MAINTENANCE CLEANED THE CONNECTOR ON NR 2 ENGINE PEC AND PERFORMED OPS TEST OF THE AUTOFEATHER SYSTEM PER BOMBA AMM 61-20-00.  OPS CHECKED GOOD.
