AD: The Boeing Company Airplanes

AD NUMBER: 2016-22-14

PRODUCT: Certain The Boeing Company Model 737-600, -700, -700C, -800, -900, and -900ER series airplanes.

ACTION: Final Rule

SUMMARY: This AD was prompted by a report of wire chafing damage, which caused an electrical arc to an adjacent hydraulic tube located on the forward bulkhead of the main landing gear (MLG) wheel well, resulting in a hole in a hydraulic tube and consequent total loss of system B hydraulic fluid.

This AD requires an inspection for chafing damage of wire bundles and a hydraulic tube in the right side of the MLG wheel well, and corrective action if necessary; and installation of clamps between the wire bundles and hydraulic tube.

The FAA is issuing this AD to prevent chafing damage, which could result in electrical arcing that can cause a hole in the hydraulic tube and consequent loss of hydraulic fluid, possibly resulting in a fire in the MLG wheel well.

DATES: This AD is effective December 14, 2016

FMI: AD
