3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-20-00-869-096-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
Subtask 24-20-00-810-164-D ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the fault symptom is identified by the CFDS message WRG: GEN APU FEEDER and the upper ECAM-DU warning APU GEN FAULT:
  • Do a check of the feeders ASM 242301 for a short circuit or a short to airframe between:
    . Terminal T1 of the APU generator (8XS) and pin 7 of the APU/EXT power contactor module (29XN)
    . Terminal T2 of the APU generator (8XS) and pin 8 of the APU/EXT power contactor module (29XN)
    . Terminal T3 of the APU generator (8XS) and pin 9 of the APU/EXT power contactor module (29XN).
   (1) If the wiring is not correct:
  • Repair or replace the feeders as necessary.
   (2) If the wiring is correct:
     (a) If the fault continues:
Subtask 24-20-00-860-166-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) Let the APU generator operate for five minutes to make sure that it operates correctly.
   (3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the APU AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
