## Abstract

This amendment adopts a new airworthiness directive (AD) for Eurocopter France (Eurocoper) Model SA341G and SA342J helicopters. This action requires modifying an electric hoist (hoist) junction box (junction box). This amendment is prompted by the discovery of an anomaly affecting the resistor that is located in the junction box. The actions specified in this AD are intended to prevent failure of the hoist emergency load jettison switch, resulting in an inability of the pilot to cut the rescue hoist cable in the event of cable entanglement or other emergency and subsequent loss of control of the helicopter.
