Models named: 777-200, -200LR, -300, -300ER series. Read the applicability below — it usually turns on serial or part numbers too.

Applicability*9

This AD applies to The Boeing Company Model 777-200, -200LR, -300, and -300ER series airplanes, certificated in any category, as identified in Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-28-0061, Revision 2, dated May 4, 2015.

Compliance

Comply with this AD within the compliance times specified, unless already done.

Required actions

Within 60 months after the effective date of this AD, modify the wiring and install new relay brackets in new locations to allow installation of new relays for the left and right engine fuel spar valves, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Boeing Special Attention Service Bulletin 777-28-0061, Revision 2, dated May 4, 2015, except as required by paragraph (h) of this AD.

Unsafe condition

This AD was prompted by a report indicating that the manufacturer discovered locations where the control components and wiring of the left and right engine fuel spar valves do not have adequate physical separation to meet the redundant system separation requirements. We are issuing this AD to prevent loss of control of both the left and right engine fuel spar valves during a single event, such as local wire bundle damage or a wire bundle fire, which could cause both engines to shut down or result in the inability to control an engine fire.

Affected ADs

None.
