US regulators last night issued an emergency airworthiness directive (AD) requiring operators of all Boeing 737 Next Generation aircraft to perform a wiring test and inspection of the centre wing tank fuel pump auto-shutoff system, if installed, within 48h.

The issue surfaced after reports to Boeing that a crew could not command the left-hand fuel pump in the centre wing tank of a Boeing 737-700 to shut off. Boeing then found the same problem on two other aircraft.
