Refer to Special Instruction M0071890 for the Rework Procedure.
The impacted hose has a cure date code range of 27-Jul-15-6 through 31-Oct-15-6. The cure date is ink jet printed in white ink (Image 1) and can be found on the black portion of the hose surface (not in the hose layline). Prior to removal of the assembly, locate the cure date on the hose. If the date code is from 27-Jul-15-6 through 31-Oct-15-6, OR if the cure date cannot be found on the hose, remove and replace the assembly following the rework procedure. The cure date of the hose is NOT located on the white tag (Image 2) found on the hose assembly. |
