   (1) Do the trouble shooting for chapter 31 or CFDIU messages that come into view with this message.
   (2) If there are no chapter 31 or CFDIU messages or if the fault continues after the trouble shooting :
  • do a check of the wiring of the ARINC 429 bus ASM 244101 for an open circuit, a short circuit, a short to ground or a short to shield between:
    . pin A/7E of the GAPCU and pin B/11E of the CFDIU (1TW)
    . pin A/8E of the GAPCU and pin B/11D of the CFDIU
    . pins A/7E and A/9E of the GAPCU

B. When you replace a component or repair the wiring:
  • do the subsequent flight before you do the check of the Class 3 Faults of the GAPCU from the CFDS to make sure that the system operates correctly.
    If the test continues to give the fault message, continue the trouble shooting procedure.
