We are adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for certain Bombardier, Inc., Model DHC-8-102, -103, and -106 airplanes; and Model DHC-8-200 and DHC-8-300 series airplanes. This AD was prompted by reports of incorrect installation of the auto-ignition system due to crossed wires at one of the splices in the auto-relight system. This AD requires inspecting the auto-ignition system for correct wiring, and doing corrective actions if necessary. We are issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
Within 2,000 flight hours or 12 months after the effective date of this AD, whichever occurs first: Inspect the auto-ignition system for correct wiring and do all applicable corrective actions, in accordance with the Accomplishment Instructions of Bombardier Service Bulletin 8-74-05, Revision B, dated April 14, 2014. All applicable corrective actions must be done before further flight.
