3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 76-11-00-710-103-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 Electronic Engine Control (EEC) has detected the autothrust instinctive disconnect discrete circuit for the Flight Control Unit (FCU) is out of range or rate in channel B. The autothrust instinctive disconnect discrete circuit wiring is connected to channel A of the EEC and cross strapped to channel B. The autothrust instinctive disconnect discrete circuit is activated by a push button on the Throttle Control Unit (TCU).

Refer to the general troubleshooting guidelines for additional troubleshooting information (Ref. TSM TASK 71-00-00-810-834).
Refer to the component and harness intermittent troubleshooting procedure for guidance troubleshooting intermittent faults (Ref. TSM TASK 71-00-00-810-835).

(4) If the maintenance message does not come back, examine the harness 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 76-11-00-810-099-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. If there is confirmation of the fault:
(1) Do the troubleshooting procedure (Ref. TSM TASK 76-11-00-810-824).

5. Close-up
Subtask 76-11-00-860-056-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL

A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
(1) Make sure that the work area is clean and clear of tools and other items.
(2) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits AMM 24-41-00-862-002.
