3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-40-00-710-052-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Test
   (1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the external power AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
NOTE: Energization of the aircraft is correct but, during the procedure given at Para. 3.F, make sure that:
  • on the panel 35VU, on the EXT PWR pushbutton switch, the AVAIL legend goes off and the ON legend stays off.
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-40-00-810-056-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the test confirms the fault:
   (1) If the ON legend of the ELEC/EXT PWR pushbutton switch comes on:
     (a) If the fault continues:
  • do a check and repair the wiring between the pin A/5 of the ELEC/EXT PWR pushbutton switch and the pin A/17 of the EPC (3XG) and between the pin A/15 of the EPC (3XG) and the first terminal block.
   (2) If the ON legend of the ELEC/EXT PWR pushbutton switch stays off:
  • replace the LAMP of the ON legend of this pushbutton switch.
     (a) If the fault continues:
  • do a check of the wiring from the ELEC/EXT PWR pushbutton switch to the first terminal block ASM 244101.
       1 If there is no continuity:
  • repair the wiring.
       2 If there is continuity:
  • replace the P/BSW-ELEC/EXT PWR [10XG] .

B. Do this test to make sure that the system operates correctly.
   (1) Do the test given in Para. 3. and make sure that:
  • on the panel 35VU, on the ELEC/EXT PWR pushbutton switch : the AVAIL legend goes off and the ON legend comes on.
   (2) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits from the external power AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
