Unsafe Condition

Failure of the brake shuttle valves, and consequent loss of the brake effectiveness, due to installation of improper filter fittings, which could reduce controllability of the airplane during taxi, takeoff, and landing roll.

AI-generated summary from the source AD text. Verify against the official source before acting.

Required Actions

Within 3 months after the effective date, perform a one-time visual inspection to determine the serial numbers of the brake shuttle valves. If any brake shuttle valve with S/N 2162A through 2244A is installed, replace the filter fittings with new ones before further flight. Also, prohibit installation of brake shuttle valves with part number 5084-1 unless inspected and defective fittings replaced.
