3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-20-00-700-107-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Test
Not applicable.
NOTE: As the GEN2 was set to OFF because of a true failure, the test configuration is not necessary.
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-20-00-810-096-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message CHECK FIRE HANDLE 2 RESET GEN2 and the upper ECAM DU warning GEN2 FAULT:
  • do a check of the status of the ENG2 FIRE pushbutton switch on the FIRE panel (1WD).
   (1) If the pushbutton switch has not been pushed:
  • do a check for intermittent +28VDC and repair the wiring between respectively:
    . the pin A/3A of the GCU2 and the pin C/V of the ENG/APU FIRE PNL (1WD)
    . the pin A/3A of the GCU2 and the pin A/B3 of the SENSOR-TDC AC2 ASM 242203.
   (2) If the pushbutton switch has been pushed:
  • do the necessary maintenance procedure and then reset the generator 2.
Subtask 24-20-00-710-083-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Do this operational test to make sure that the system operates correctly.
   (1) Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
     (a) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
     (b) Do the EIS start procedure (Upper ECAM DU and lower ECAM DU only)
AMM 31-60-00-860-001
   (2) On the panel 35VU:
  • push, release and push again the GEN2 pushbutton switch (3XU2).
   (3) Do the operational check of the GPCU with the CFDS AMM 24-41-00-740-004.
   (4) Start the engine 2 AMM 71-00-00-710-003.
   (5) Do this test:
ACTION
RESULT
On the ECAM control panel:
  • get the ELEC page.
On the lower ECAM display unit:
  • the correct electrical parameters of GEN2 are shown and AC2 busbar is supplied by GEN2.
5. Close-up
Subtask 24-20-00-860-111-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
   (1) stop the engine 2 AMM 71-00-00-710-028.
   (2) On the ECAM control panel, set the UPPER DISPLAY and LOWER DISPLAY potentiometers to OFF.
   (3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
