3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-23-00-869-062-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 WRG: GEN APU FEEDER PHASE A/ GEN APU (8XS) and the upper ECAM-DU warning APU GEN FAULT:

do a check of the resistance of the phase A of the APU generator between terminal T1 and N (9.35 milliohms plus or minus 1.25 milliohm) ASM 242301.

(1) If the resistance values are out of the specified limits:

replace the GEN-APU [8XS] AMM 24-23-51-000-001 and AMM 24-23-51-400-001.

(2) If the resistance values are in the specified limits:

do a check of the feeder for an open circuit or a high resistance condition between the terminal T1 of the APU generator and the pin 7 of the APU/EXT power contactor module (29XN) ASM 242301.

(a) If the feeder is not correct:

repair or replace the feeder as necessary.

(b) If the feeder is correct:

replace the GAPCU [24XG] AMM 24-41-34-000-001 and AMM 24-41-34-400-001.

1 If the fault continues:

replace the GEN-APU [8XS] AMM 24-23-51-000-001 and AMM 24-23-51-400-001.

Subtask 24-23-00-860-064-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.
(3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the APU AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
