A. Test
Not applicable.
4. Fault IsolationNot applicable.
NOTE: As the GEN 2 was set to OFF because of a true failure, the fault confirmation is not necessary.
CAUTION:
BEFORE YOU START THE CHECK OF IDG WIRING THAT INCLUDES CONNECTORS, EXAMINE EACH CONNECTOR TO MAKE SURE THAT THERE IS NO CONTAMINATION IN IT.
IF YOU FIND CONTAMINATION, CLEAN THE CONNECTOR AND CONNECT IT AGAIN.
IF THE FAILURE CONTINUES, DO THE TROUBLE SHOOTING PROCEDURE AS GIVEN BELOW.
