100. 
EFFECTIVITY 
Model Serial Number 
F406 001 & ON 
PURPOSE 
In service reports of development of smoke and a burning smell in the cockpit have been 
recorded. Technical investigations revealed that these occurrences were induced by the 
failure of a circuit breaker switch P/N CM3589-20. 
To address this issue, these circuit breaker switches must be imperatively replaced by the 
new circuit breaker switches reference P/N 406E2450-00000- 100 as described in this 
Service Bulletin, within the 200 hours of operation, or 12 months or the next programmed 
inspection, whichever occurs first. Non-compliance with this Service Bulletin may allow a 
de-ice propeller circuit breaker switch and/or a recognition light circuit breaker switch to fail 
in a manner that could result in noticeable smoke and a burning smell in the cockpit. 
A life limit of 6 years is introduced for this new breaker. The standard aircraft maintenance 
manual chapter 05-11-00 has been updated. 
COMPLIANCE: MANDATORY 
Shall be accomplished in the 200 hours of operation, or 12 months or the next programmed 
inspection. 
Circuit breaker switches CM3589-20 must be replaced by circuit breaker switches P/N 
406E2450-00000-100. The circuit breaker switches P/N 406E2450-00000-100 must be 
replaced every 6 years.  
APPROBATION
