A. Side Stick Identification
(1) Do the identification of the side stick installed on the aircraft AMM 27-92-41-860-801:
(a) If a new-generation side-stick unit is installed on the aircraft, refer to the trouble shooting procedure (Ref. TSM TASK 27-93-00-810-978).
(b) If the side stick installed on the aircraft is not a new-generation side-stick unit, continue this procedure.
Subtask 27-93-00-700-070-A (1) Do the identification of the side stick installed on the aircraft AMM 27-92-41-860-801:
(a) If a new-generation side-stick unit is installed on the aircraft, refer to the trouble shooting procedure (Ref. TSM TASK 27-93-00-810-978).
(b) If the side stick installed on the aircraft is not a new-generation side-stick unit, continue this procedure.
B. Test
(1) Do the operational test of the side stick assembly (activation for the BITE test) AMM 27-96-00-710-020.
(2) Do the BITE test of the EFCS (Ground Scanning) AMM 27-96-00-740-001.
4. Fault Isolation(1) Do the operational test of the side stick assembly (activation for the BITE test) AMM 27-96-00-710-020.
(2) Do the BITE test of the EFCS (Ground Scanning) AMM 27-96-00-740-001.
Subtask 27-93-00-810-060-A
A. If the BITE test gives the maintenance message:
CAPT PITCH CTL SSTU 4CE3
control rods, bellcranks and input levers of the transducer unit and take the corrective actions if necessary.
(2) If no mechanical problems:
Subtask 27-93-00-700-071-A CAPT PITCH CTL SSTU 4CE3
- remove the CAPT side stick assembly AMM 27-92-41-000-001.
(2) If no mechanical problems:
- replace the SSTU-PITCH CTL, CAPT [4CE3] , AMM 27-92-41-000-002 and AMM 27-92-41-400-002.
B. Do the operational test and the BITE test given in Para. 3.
