## Discrepancy

BOS - FLT 158 - INBOUND TO BOS, CREW REPORTED A FLASH OF LIGHT IN THE CABIN, FOLLOWED BY A PASSENGER READING LIGHT GOING OUT.  THE LIGHT WAS RESET.  THE LIGHT FLASHED AND EXTINGUISHED AGAIN, FOLLOWED BY AN ELECTRICAL ODOR.  MAINTENANCE IN BOS COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM.  MAINTENANCE IN PHL REMOVED THE BULB FROM A DEFECTIVE SIDEWALL LIGHT ASSEMBLY AND PROGRAMMED IT FOR REPLACEMENT.  (M)
