Just another note: the main technician in charge had 11 years of experience in Viva Air (owned by Iberia and Lufthansa) and another 9.5 years in Spanair (lately owned by SAS). I don't know the experience of his assistant in this case.
Both, of course, fully licensed for the type.
One of them was carrying test actions from the outside and the other one inside the cockpit. The one outside also briefly came in to label heater/cb as MEL'ed. They both communicated (by radio, I'm assuming) and decided on how to tackle the problem and agreed that it had been properly "fixed".
The pilot was aware of their actions.
