3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-40-00-860-054-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. Job Set-Up
(1) Aircraft Maintenance Configuration
(a) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-861-002

Subtask 24-40-00-740-052-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

B. Test
Do the operational check of the GPCU with the CFDS AMM 24-41-00-740-004.

4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-40-00-810-052-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. If the test gives the maintenance message CHECK GPCU PINS C3, C4 RECEPTACLE 20XG PINS F, E and on the overhead panel, on the panel 35VU, the AVAIL legend of the EXT PWR pushbutton switch is on:

Do a check of the status of the 3A circuit breaker on the front face of the GPCU:

(1) If the circuit breaker is open:

Do the procedure (Ref. TSM TASK 24-00-00-810-803).

(a) If the fault continues:

Replace the GPCU [1XG] AMM 24-41-34-000-001 and AMM 24-41-34-400-001.

(2) If the circuit breaker is closed:

Do a check of the wiring for open circuit between the pin AC/4 of the GPCU and the pin F of the external power receptacle ASM 244101.

(a) If the wiring is not correct:

Repair the wiring .

(b) If the wiring is correct:

Replace the external power unit.

Replace the GPCU [1XG] AMM 24-41-34-000-001 and AMM 24-41-34-400-001.

Subtask 24-40-00-700-055-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

B. Make sure that the aircraft electrical circuits operate correctly in ground configuration.
(1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the external power AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
(2) De- energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the external power AMM 24-41-00-862-002.

5. Close-up
Subtask 24-40-00-860-055-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
(1) On the ECAM control panel, set the UPPER DISPLAY and LOWER DISPLAY potentiometers to OFF.
(2) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-862-002
