There's something wrong if it's still not fixed and it has indeed been out of service today. It's been at least a month now since it appeared like that, and I've frequently seen 7518 in service on the X14 while that's been on the X21/22, if it's down to the depot management, it needs to sort itself out. Below are several things I've noticed since the Sapphire launch:

No Ashington Sapphire (or MAX) vehicles have cab door stickers, unlike every other depot.

7522-8 (excluding 7524) have had only route numbers displaying on the rear display since about October?

Drivers frequently not wearing the "Sapphire" uniform, blue shirts/polo shirts are common sights in my experience. 

Vehicles going for weeks without working NSA's, 7501 must have had the "Sapphire" screen for at least a month. 

It's very rare to find a 57-reg one with working plugs, although it's rare to see one in service Wink 

There are others, but I think most have been dealt with
