APU AUTO SHUT DOWN - LOSS OF DC POWER, Low ECB Voltage (APS 3200)


TASK 49-00-81-810-879-A
APU AUTO SHUT DOWN - LOSS OF DC POWER, Low ECB Voltage (APS 3200)


1. Possible Causes
  • wiring
  • COOLING FAN/PMG ASSY (8055KM)
  • ELECTRONIC CONTROL BOX [59KD]
  • aircraft wiring
  • RELAY-APU MAIN CTL [4KD]
  • C/B-APU/ECB/SPLY [1KD]

3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 49-00-81-710-208-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Do the operational test of the APU AMM 49-00-00-710-008.
NOTE: This message is intermittent.
The ECB gives a LOSS OF DC POWER message if the electrical power stops for more than 230ms and then starts again.
4. Fault Isolation

A. Maintenance Action
   (1) If the APU SHUTDOWNS report gives the maintenance message:


LOSS OF DC POWER:
APU Auto Shut Down Fault Code Number: 040
Additionally the Last Leg Report gives the maintenance message:
COOLING FAN PMG ASSY (8055KM)
Fault Code Number: 002


     (a) If the fault continues:
  • do a test of the PMG fuse with a multimeter (diode scale):
    - place the positive lead on PIN 3 of P28 Connector and the negative lead on PIN 2.
    - if it is approx. 0.9V, the fuse is OK.
       1 If the fuse is OK:
         a If the fault continues:
       2 If the fuse is blown:
   (2) If the APU SHUTDOWNS report gives the maintenance message:


LOSS OF DC POWER:
APU Auto Shut Down Fault Code Number: 040


     (a) If the fault is reproducible:
  • check the ELEC messages in the Last-Leg Report on the MCDU, and do the related Trouble-shooting.

       1 If the fault continues:
         a If the fault continues:
         b If the fault continues:
     (b) If the fault is not reproducible:
  • No maintenance action is necessary.
Subtask 49-00-81-710-209-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
B. Do the test given in Para. 3.
