4. Fault IsolationSubtask 49-00-81-810-193-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If there is an APU audible surge:
(1) Check the CFDS for fault messages.
(a) If a fault message shows:
1 Do a visual inspection of the APU air inlet for airflow blockage, FOD/DOD, plenum splitter loose and/or detachments AMM 49-16-00-210-802.
2 Do a visual inspection of the air flow sensors and tubes. Do a check for signs of blockage or leakage AMM 49-16-00-210-802.
3 If necessary, repair and/or replace AMM 49-16-42-000-003 AMM 49-16-42-400-003.
Subtask 49-00-81-810-194-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL (1) Check the CFDS for fault messages.
(a) If a fault message shows:
- Do the related troubleshooting procedure.
1 Do a visual inspection of the APU air inlet for airflow blockage, FOD/DOD, plenum splitter loose and/or detachments AMM 49-16-00-210-802.
2 Do a visual inspection of the air flow sensors and tubes. Do a check for signs of blockage or leakage AMM 49-16-00-210-802.
3 If necessary, repair and/or replace AMM 49-16-42-000-003 AMM 49-16-42-400-003.
B. If the fault continues:
(1) Do a check and repair the wiring from EIU-1 (1KS1) to the ECB (59KD), pin AB/1C to pin AB/E5 ASM 732509.
Subtask 49-00-81-810-205-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL (1) Do a check and repair the wiring from EIU-1 (1KS1) to the ECB (59KD), pin AB/1C to pin AB/E5 ASM 732509.
C. If the fault continues:
(1) Do a check for damage/contamination of electrical connector P18 of the Surge Control Valve.
(a) If the electrical connector P18 is damaged/contaminated:
1 Use a MULTIMETER - STANDARD to do a resistance check across
pin 1 and pin 2
pin 2 and pin 3
pin 4 and pin 5
of the Surge Control Valve connector P18.
Subtask 49-00-81-810-206-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL (1) Do a check for damage/contamination of electrical connector P18 of the Surge Control Valve.
(a) If the electrical connector P18 is damaged/contaminated:
- Do a repair/cleaning of the connector P18.
1 Use a MULTIMETER - STANDARD to do a resistance check across
pin 1 and pin 2
pin 2 and pin 3
pin 4 and pin 5
of the Surge Control Valve connector P18.
- If the resistance check shows OPEN (>1MOhm) or SHORT (<500 mOhms) circuit, replace the
Surge Control Valve (8058KM) AMM 49-51-52-000-003 AMM 49-51-52-400-003.
D. If the fault continues:
(1) Do an inspection of the Delta Pressure Sensor.
Subtask 49-00-81-810-207-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL (1) Do an inspection of the Delta Pressure Sensor.
- If necessary, replace the
Delta Pressure Sensor (8043KM) AMM 49-51-16-000-002 AMM 49-51-16-400-002.
- If necessary, replace the
Total Pressure Sensor (8044KM) AMM 49-51-17-000-002 AMM 49-51-17-400-002.
E. If the fault continues:
(1) Do an inspection of the IGVs, including mechanical linkage, and IGV actuators AMM 49-20-00-210-003.
Subtask 49-00-81-810-208-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL (1) Do an inspection of the IGVs, including mechanical linkage, and IGV actuators AMM 49-20-00-210-003.
F. If the fault continues:
(1) Do a borescope inspection of the Load Compressor Impeller AMM 49-20-00-200-003.
Subtask 49-00-81-810-209-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL (1) Do a borescope inspection of the Load Compressor Impeller AMM 49-20-00-200-003.
