3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 73-00-00-710-378-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Energize the FADEC of the engine that has a fault report.
   (1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
AMM 24-41-00-861-002.
   (2) On the ENG section of maintenance panel 50VU:
     (a) Release the FADEC GND PWR/1(2) pushbutton switch (the ON legend comes on).
NOTE: After the FADEC is energized, wait ten seconds before you start the test. If you do not wait ten seconds, the interactive mode stops the EEC self-test and this can cause spurious faults.
   (3) On Multipurpose Control and Display Unit (MCDU) screen, check if the fault is displayed on ground scanning report .
NOTE: The EEC has detected the circuits for the engine position discrete on channel B and Engine Interface Unit (EIU) on channel A do not agree. The engine position discretes are configured using hardwired jumpers in the pylon wire harness. The EIU is located in the avionics compartment. The EEC is located on the fan case at the 2 o'clock position.
   (4) If the maintenance message does not come back, examine the harnesses and electrical connectors as described in the component and harness intermittent fault isolation procedure (Ref. TSM TASK 71-00-00-810-835).
     (a) If no problems are found, return the engine to service. Monitor the engine for reoccurring maintenance message.
   (5) If the maintenance message comes back (hard fault), go to the Para. Fault Isolation.
4. Fault Isolation
WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE ENGINE AFTER SHUTDOWN. THE ENGINE CAN STAY HOT FOR A LONG TIME. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS WARNING, INJURY CAN OCCUR.
WARNING: REFER TO THE MSDS FOR ALL MATERIAL USED AND THE MANUFACTURER'S SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR ALL EQUIPMENT USED. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS WARNING, INJURY CAN OCCUR.
CAUTION: MAKE SURE YOU REMOVE ELECTRICAL POWER FROM THE EEC BEFORE YOU REMOVE THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTORS. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS INSTRUCTION, DAMAGE TO THE EEC CAN OCCUR.
Subtask 73-00-00-810-292-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If there is confirmation of the fault:
   (1) Open the fan cowl doors AMM 71-13-00-010-802.
   (2) Examine the WF01 (4217KS) and WF02 (4218KS) harnesses, connectors P2 (4000KS-P2) and P1 (4000KS-P1) - EEC (4000KS) and connectors P407 (407VC-A) and P402 (402VC-A) - Pylon junction box, for problems which are possible between the EEC (4000KS) and the pylon junction box.
     (a) Inspect for harness damage.
     (b) Inspect for loose or damaged connectors.
NOTE: Loose connectors must be disconnected and examined for further wear or damage.
     (c) If a problem is found with the harnesses or connectors:
       1 Replace HARNESS-FAN, WF01 [4217KS] AMM 73-21-61-000-802 and AMM 73-21-61-400-802, or
       2 Replace HARNESS-FAN, WF02 [4218KS] AMM 73-21-62-000-802 and AMM 73-21-62-400-802.
       3 Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (3) If no problems are found with the harnesses or the fault continues, use a PLIERS - JAWED, SOFT to disconnect the electrical connectors P2 (4000KS-P2) and P1 (4000KS-P1) from the EEC (4000KS) and connectors P407 (407VC-A) and P402 (402VC-A) from the pylon junction box.
     (a) Examine the pins and sockets (contacts) for alignment and damage. Look for contacts pushed rearward into the connector face. Replace parts as necessary.
     (b) Clean the contacts with contact cleaner and clean cloth per SPOP 6. Blow dry with air (at less than 30 psi) across the connector face AMM 70-70-00-910-803.
     (c) Reconnect the electrical connectors P2 (4000KS-P2) and P1 (4000KS-P1) to the EEC (4000KS) and connectors P407 (407VC-A) and P402 (402VC-A) to the pylon junction box.
     (d) Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (4) If the fault continues:
     (a) Disconnect the electrical connectors P2 (4000KS-P2) and P1 (4000KS-P1) from the EEC (4000KS) and connectors P407 (407VC-A) and P402 (402VC-A) from the pylon junction box. Use a MULTIMETER - STANDARD to test the engine position discrete and EIU circuits in the harness. Refer to Table 1 and Table 2. Look for:
       1 Wire-to-wire shorts
       2 Shorts to ground
       3 Continuity (less than 5 ohms resistance).
NOTE: A short to ground is found when the resistance is less than 100 000 (100K) ohms.

     (b) If a problem is found with the harnesses or connectors:
       1 Replace HARNESS-FAN, WF01 [4217KS] AMM 73-21-61-000-802 and AMM 73-21-61-400-802, or
       2 Replace HARNESS-FAN, WF02 [4218KS] AMM 73-21-62-000-802 and AMM 73-21-62-400-802.
       3 Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (5) If no problems are found with the WF01 (4217KS) harness, check the circuit for correct jumper configuration in the pylon harness from (407VC). Refer to Table 3.
     (a) Use the pylon harness engine position configuration chart below to continuity check the jumper circuits in the pylon harness for proper configuration. Refer to Table 3.
     (b) Check for wire-to-wire shorts and shorts to ground in the jumper circuits.
