B. During normal operation of the FLSS/FWC/DMC this is a configuration memo.
If in either wing tank a pair of low level sensors that are AND gated together become dry indicating a fuel level of less than approximately 1500kg (3300lb) the memo message is given.
It is not a warning of a system/LRU failure or malfunction.
However, if the low level warning system is under suspicion:
(1) On the ECAM CONTROL PANEL push (in) the FUEL P/BSW.
(2) On the FUEL System Display (Lower ECAM) examine the wing tank FQIs.
(3) If either the wing tank FQI shows less than approximately 1500kg (3300lb) when the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message is given:
4. Fault IsolationIf in either wing tank a pair of low level sensors that are AND gated together become dry indicating a fuel level of less than approximately 1500kg (3300lb) the memo message is given.
It is not a warning of a system/LRU failure or malfunction.
However, if the low level warning system is under suspicion:
(1) On the ECAM CONTROL PANEL push (in) the FUEL P/BSW.
(2) On the FUEL System Display (Lower ECAM) examine the wing tank FQIs.
(3) If either the wing tank FQI shows less than approximately 1500kg (3300lb) when the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message is given:
- no maintenance steps are necessary.

A. If either wing tank FQI shows less than approximately 1500kg (3300lb) and the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message is not given:
(1) Do the BITE test of the FLSS AMM 28-46-00-740-001.
(2) If failures are detected examine the FLSS STATUS page for any of the messages that follow:
(a) CFDS.
(b) SYSTEM REPORT/TEST.
(c) FUEL.
(d) INPUT PARAMETER VALUES page 3, the FQIS DISCRETE INPUTS.
(6) Examine the bit positions as follows (a 0 = dry):
(a) For the left wing:
(a) Show a 1, (when the sensors are dry):
(a) Remove both FLSCUs from the rack AMM 28-46-34-000-001.
(b) Apply power to the system/aircraft.
(9) If the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message is:
(11) Replace the FLSCU-1 [7QJ] and/or FLSCU-2 [9QJ] , AMM 28-46-34-000-001 and AMM 28-46-34-400-001 that causes the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message not to be given.
(12) If the fault continues do a check of the aircraft wiring ASM 284602, between:
(14) If the fault continues:
(1) Do the BITE test of the FLSS AMM 28-46-00-740-001.
(2) If failures are detected examine the FLSS STATUS page for any of the messages that follow:
- L(R) LO LEVEL SENSOR 15QJ1(2)
- L(R) LO LEVEL SENSOR 40QJ1(2)
- FLSCU1 7QJ
- FLSCU2 9QJ.
- go to step (5).
- trouble shoot the LRU(s) before you start more steps.
Refer to CFDS and do the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
(a) CFDS.
(b) SYSTEM REPORT/TEST.
(c) FUEL.
(d) INPUT PARAMETER VALUES page 3, the FQIS DISCRETE INPUTS.
(6) Examine the bit positions as follows (a 0 = dry):
(a) For the left wing:
- E4 (15QJ1-LS5/FLSCU2)
- H3 (40QJ1-LS8/FLSCU1).
- E3 (15QJ2-LS5/FLSCU1)
- H4 (40QJ2-LS8/FLSCU2).
NOTE: The Fuel Level Sensors Operating (Changeover) Values can be got from P. Block 301.
(7) If both of the above bit positions in 4.A.(6)(a) or 4.A.(6)(b): (a) Show a 1, (when the sensors are dry):
- Go to the CFDS, or the Table of Contents and do the applicable troubleshooting procedure.
(a) Remove both FLSCUs from the rack AMM 28-46-34-000-001.
(b) Apply power to the system/aircraft.
(9) If the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message is:
- not given:
(11) Replace the FLSCU-1 [7QJ] and/or FLSCU-2 [9QJ] , AMM 28-46-34-000-001 and AMM 28-46-34-400-001 that causes the FOB BELOW 3 T memo message not to be given.
(12) If the fault continues do a check of the aircraft wiring ASM 284602, between:
- the FLSCU-1 rack connector AA pin 10B and the SDAC 1 connector AD pin 4F
- the FLSCU-1 rack connector AA pin 10B and the SDAC 2 connector AD pin 4F
- the FLSCU-2 rack connector AA pin 10B and the SDAC 1 connector AA pin 4D
- the FLSCU-2 rack connector AA pin 10B and the SDAC 2 connector AA pin 4D
- the FLSCU-1 rack connector AA pin 4C and the FLSCU-2 rack connector AA pin 9B
- the FLSCU-1 rack connector AA pin 9B and the FLSCU-2 rack connector AA pin 4C.
(14) If the fault continues:
- open the C/Bs 3WV (SDAC1) and 2WV (SDAC2) in turn:
- interchange the SDACs to confirm the faulty LRU.
NOTE: When AIDS is installed in the aircraft, the AIDS PARA LABEL CALL-UP Menu option can be used to identify which SDAC is not giving a memo message as shown in the table that follows.
