A. Test
(1) On the ENG/APU FIRE PANEL (1WD) located on the overhead panel 20VU, make sure that the ENG 2 FIRE PUSH pushbutton switch (P/BSW) is in the closed and guarded position.
(2) On the ECAM Control Panel 11VU, push (in) the FUEL P/BSW to get the FUEL system page on the ECAM lower display unit (DU).
(3) Make sure the ENG/MASTER 2 (2KC) switch (panel 115VU) is set to OFF.
(4) On the FUEL system page make sure the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol shows that the valve is closed (amber crossline).
(5) Make a note of the valve transit time for the following actions:
(b) Make sure the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol changes to open (green in-line).
(6) Make a note of the valve transit time for the following actions:
(b) Make sure the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol changes to closed (amber crossline).
(7) If the ENG 2 LP fuel valve:
4. Fault Isolation(1) On the ENG/APU FIRE PANEL (1WD) located on the overhead panel 20VU, make sure that the ENG 2 FIRE PUSH pushbutton switch (P/BSW) is in the closed and guarded position.
(2) On the ECAM Control Panel 11VU, push (in) the FUEL P/BSW to get the FUEL system page on the ECAM lower display unit (DU).
(3) Make sure the ENG/MASTER 2 (2KC) switch (panel 115VU) is set to OFF.
(4) On the FUEL system page make sure the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol shows that the valve is closed (amber crossline).
(5) Make a note of the valve transit time for the following actions:
NOTE: The LP fuel valve symbol shows a 45 degree amber line while in transit.
(a) Set the ENG/MASTER 2 (2KC) switch (panel 115VU) to ON, and immediately observe the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol on the FUEL system page. (b) Make sure the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol changes to open (green in-line).
(6) Make a note of the valve transit time for the following actions:
NOTE: The LP fuel valve symbol shows a 45 degree amber line while in transit.
(a) Set the ENG/MASTER 2 (2KC) switch (panel 115VU) to OFF, and immediately observe the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol on the FUEL system page. (b) Make sure the ENG 2 LP fuel valve symbol changes to closed (amber crossline).
(7) If the ENG 2 LP fuel valve:
- transit time from closed to open is 2 seconds (and the transit time from open to closed is 2 seconds), no troubleshooting work steps are necessary
- opens and closes slowly, do Para. 4.A.
NOTE: The above time of 2 seconds is correct for an aircraft with a nominal supply voltage of 28VDC. If the 28VDC supply voltage is low or in ambient conditions of extreme cold the transit time of the actuator will be greater.
