Subtask 73-00-00-860-114-A
A. Job Set-up

Subtask 73-00-00-710-324-A
B. Identify the Test for Fault Confirmation
NOTE: Troubleshooting can start immediately without doing the fault confirmation if this CLM was shown
in multiple flight or ground legs.
(1) Do the CFDS message decoding and read the scheduled maintenance report to identify the fault
code (for A1 engines) or fault acronym (for A5 engines) related to the CLM (Ref. TSM 70-00-00-03) .
(2) If the readout gives the fault code 67 (for A1 engines) or fault acronym B10WAF (for A5 engines)
in FADEC 1A or FADEC 1B, do the operational test of the FADEC system on the ground for fault
confirmation Ref. AMM 73-22-00-710-040 .
(a) If the test gives the fault code 67 (for A1 engines) or fault acronym B10WAF (for A5 engines) in
FADEC 1A or FADEC 1B or there are two or more occurrences in fault history, continue with fault
isolation Para 4.A.
(b) If the test does not give the fault code 67 (for A1 engines) or fault acronym B10WAF (for A5
engines), and there is no history of faults, send the engine back to service.

A. Fault Isolation for Fault Code 67 (for A1 Engines) or Fault Acronym B10WAF (for A5 Engines)
· A wrap around fault was found in channel A or B. The circuit for the HPC stage 10 bleed solenoid valve
is open, shorted to ground or has a wire-to-wire short.
NOTE: After each step that is done during this procedure, you can do the steps in Para 3 to make sure
the fault is corrected.
NOTE: Disconnection and connection of the electrical connectors can correct this fault.
(1) If the fault code or fault acronym was found in channel A, do the steps that follow:
(a) Visually examine the harness from the EEC connector (4000KS-J5) to the HPC stage 10 bleed
solenoid valve (4023KS) Ref. AMM 71-50-00-210-010 .
1 Look for harness damage.
2 Look for loose or damaged connectors.
3 Look for loose or damaged backshells.
NOTE: Loose backshells must be disassembled and examined for internal wiring chafing.
4 If a problem is found with the harness, repair or replace it as necessary.
(b) If no problems were found with the harness, disconnect the electrical connector (4023KS-A) from
the HPC stage 10 bleed solenoid valve (4023KS) Ref. AMM 71-50-00-210-010 . Examine the
male and female parts of the connection:
1 Examine the pins and sockets (contacts) for alignment and damage.
2 Look for contacts pushed rearward into the connector face.
3 Look for ovalized sockets in the connector.
NOTE: This can be done by inserting a harness connector pin into each socket. You must
feel friction when you insert and remove the pin.
4 Repair as necessary.
(c) Do this electrical check of the channel A solenoid circuit in the HPC stage 10 bleed solenoid
valve (4023KS) Ref. ASM 73-25-18:
1 Make sure that contacts 3 and 4 are not shorted to ground.
2 Make sure that contacts 3 and 4 are not shorted to other contacts in the connector.
3 Make sure the resistance from contact 3 to contact 4 is between 41 and 77 ohms.
4 If a problem is found, remove and replace the SOL VALVE-HP COMPRESSOR STAGE
10 ( 4023KS ) Ref. AMM 75-32-53-000-010 and Ref. AMM 75-32-53-400-010 .
(d) If no problems were found, disconnect electrical connector (4000KS-J5) from the EEC (4000KS)
Ref. AMM 71-50-00-210-010 . Examine the male and female parts of the connection:
1 Examine the pins and sockets (contacts) for alignment and damage.
2 Look for contacts pushed rearward into the connector face.
3 Look for ovalized sockets in the connector.
NOTE: This can be done by inserting a harness connector pin into each socket. You must
feel friction when you insert and remove the pin.
4 Repair as necessary.
(e) Do this electrical check of the torque motor wiring in the channel A harness. Look for:
1 Wire to wire shorts and shorts to ground
· Wire-to-wire short check: measure the resistance between the wires. If the resistance is
below 100000 (100K) ohms, then the wires are shorted and must be repaired.
· Wire-to-ground short check: measure the resistance between the wire and the engine
metal or ground. If the resistance is below 100000 (100K) ohms, then the wire is shorted
to ground and must be repaired.
2 Continuity
· Continuity check: measure the resistance between the ends of the same wire. If the
resistance is more than 10 ohms, then the wire must be repaired.
NOTE: An incorrectly wired harness can cause this problem. When you test these circuits,
make sure the contacts are installed in the correct positions in each connector as
specified in the wiring diagram.
