3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 24-41-00-710-053-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Test
Do the operational check of the GPCU with the CFDS AMM 24-41-00-740-004.
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 24-41-00-810-052-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If the test gives the maintenance message NO DATA FROM GCU APU:
  • on the circuit breaker panel 122VU, do a check of the status of the circuit breaker (6XS).
   (1) If the circuit breaker is open:
  • close it.
   (2) If the circuit breaker is closed:
  • do a check for 28VDC on the pin A/1D of the APU GCU.
     (a) If there is no 28VDC:
  • do a check of the wiring between the circuit breaker (6XS) and the APU GCU ASM 242302.
       1 If there is no continuity:
  • repair the above wiring.
       2 If there is continuity:
  • replace the C/B-ELEC/APU/GCU [6XS] .
     (b) If there is 28VDC:
  • do a check of the wiring between respectively the APU GCU pins B/14C, B/14D and the GPCU pins A/14B, A/15B ASM 244102.
       1 If there is no continuity:
  • repair the above wiring.
       2 If there is continuity:
       3 If the fault continues:
Subtask 24-41-00-710-054-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Do the test given in Para. 3.
