3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-20-00-700-080-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Test
Not applicable.
NOTE: As the APU GEN was set to OFF because of a true failure, the fault confirmation is not necessary.
4. Fault Isolation

A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message CHECK GLC APU GCU APU PIN B2D WIRING and the upper ECAM DU warning APU GEN FAULT:
  • reset the circuit breaker on the front of the APU GCU.
   (1) If the circuit breaker trips:
  • Do a check of the wiring for short to ground successively between:
    . the APU GCU pin B/2D and APU GLC pin B/3,
    . the APU GCU pin B/2D and APU GCU pins A/5B, A/12D, A/13D, A/6A, A/6C,
    . the APU GCU pin B/2D and EGIU 2 pin B/6D,
    . the APU GCU pin A/12C and APU GLC AUX pin X/1,
    . the APU availability relay (6KD) pin A/1 and APU GCU pin A/13C and EGIU 2 pin B/7C ASM 242302.
     (a) If the wiring is not correct:
  • repair it.
     (b) If the wiring is correct:
Subtask 24-20-00-700-081-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Make sure that the aircraft electrical circuits operate correctly in APU configuration.
   (1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the APU AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
   (2) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the APU AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
