## Discrepancy

LH OVERWING EXIT SLIDE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN.  OPENED SLIDE DOOR WITH GREAT DIFFICULTY.  UPON OPENING DOOR, FOUND THE FWD AND AFT DOOR OPENING SQUIB ACTUATORS AND THE LATCH RELEASE SQUIB ACTUATOR FIRED.  ALSO FOUND CONTROL ROD BROKEN, AND INTEGRATOR TORQUE TUBE NOT MOVING TO FULL OPEN.  ALSO VERIFIED THAT SPOILERS NR & NR 7 SQUIBS NOT FIRED AND SLIDE RAFT NOT UNRAVELED.  REPLACED CONTROL ROD.  AFTER REPLACING ROD AND ATTEMPTING TO CLOSE ESCAPE SLIDE DOOR, SCREWS ON THE SLIDE PACK BOARD FOUND TO BE CATCHING ON TO THE SLIDE TARGET SWITCH BRACKET.  SLIDE TO BE REPLACED.  REPLACED SLIDE & REPLACED ALL DOOR LATCH ACTUATORS.
