MEL examples.

Nbr 2 tank fwd boost pump will not switch off ?

Capt wiper will not switch off ?

Left taxi lamp will not switch off ?

F/O seat moves on elects with no request ?

Storm light will not switch off ?

Nbr 1 Rev stuck in deploy ?

Nbr 3 eng oil ind shows full(flt deck), but oil level is half full on glass ?

Nbr 2 pack on when switched off ?

TAT probe inop ?

These are normal defects that the MEL allows for.

A question I have asked before but still no answer on here, I would suspect that the MEL item in question has been used before and again would of expected TOWS to be found INOP before MEL item was fixed, and so would of expected some form of feedback that may have changed the conditions for this item inside the MEL ?

Or may be, this was the first time this event was found ?

Can anybody answer my question ? Tks in adv.
