ACFT EQUIP PROB. REVERSERS INOP ON LNDG. CIRCUIT BREAKERS LEFT OUT AFTER MAINT PROC.

Narrative

DURING ROLLOUT AT SLC; NEITHER ENG WOULD DEPLOY REVERSERS. AFTER CLRING RWY 34R; TRIED TO REINITIATE REVERSERS WITHOUT RESULT. FOUND CIRCUIT BREAKERS POPPED; PULLED TO BOTH ENG REVERSE SYS ON CIRCUIT BREAKER PANEL. PRIOR TO DEP FROM DFW; ACFT REQUIRED INSPECTION DUE TO BIRD STRIKE ON INBOUND FLT. MAINT WAS ALREADY AT THE ACFT WHEN WE ARRIVED AND WERE DOING A PRELIMINARY INSPECTION. PARTS AND FEATHERS WERE FOUND IN THE R ENG SO A MORE THOROUGH INSPECTION WAS STARTED. WE WERE LATE AND GETTING LATER; COMS WERE NEVER ESTABLISHED WITH MAINT DURING THE INSPECTIONS; SO THE CAPT ASKED ME TO GO TALK TO THEM. I LEFT THE COCKPIT; AND WAS ON MY WAY TO THE R ENG AREA WHEN I PASSED A MECH ON HIS WAY TO THE COCKPIT. HE SAID SOMETHING ABOUT NEEDING TO INSPECT MORE; ENG REVERSE; AND GOING TO THE COCKPIT. WE BOTH CONTINUED THE WAY WE WERE GOING; AND ALMOST IMMEDIATELY I RAN INTO ANOTHER MECH WHO SAID HE WAS SATISFIED WITH THE INSPECTION; WAS GOING TO SIGN IT OFF AS DONE; AND WAS TRYING TO BUTTON UP THE ACFT. I RETURNED TO THE FLT DECK; AND PREPARED TO DEPART TO SLC. I NEVER INSPECTED THE CIRCUIT BREAKER PANEL PRIOR TO TAKING MY SEAT. I PROBABLY SHOULD HAVE ASSUMED THE MECH WAS GOING TO BOTH TALK TO THE CAPT AND INFORM HIM OF THE PULLED CIRCUIT BREAKERS FOR THE INSPECTION; BUT I DIDN'T. IT'S GOOD WE DIDN'T HAVE TO ABORT.
