CAUTION: IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THE INSTRUCTIONS THAT FOLLOW, DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE
CAN BE THE RESULT.
A. Record the Following Information
NOTE: If the cause of the overtemperature is determined during this procedure, it is permitted to stop the
troubleshooting.
NOTE: If troubleshooting for surge or stall has required a borescope inspection the steps to borescope the
previously inspected components may be skipped.
(1) Engine serial number.
NOTE: If engine serial number displayed on MCDU is in the range between 13191 and 15000, then
add 5000 to this value to get the actual engine serial number.
(2) Maximum temperature.
(3) Time of overtemperature above 635 deg.C (1175 deg.F).
NOTE: If the fault symptom ENG2-EGT more than 610 deg.C (1130 deg.F) was identified by crew observation,
you must also record the time engine was above 610 deg.C (1130 deg.F).

B. Find out if the EGT overtemperature was because of indication system error. If the condition that follows is
met continue with step C otherwise continue with step D.
(1) EGT fluctuates with no related change in N1 or fuel consumption.
NOTE: A general trend of declining EGT margin associated with a rise in fuel consumption could be a
sign of deteriorating HPT stage 1 outer air seals.
Subtask 77-00-00-810-239-A
C. Do the steps that follow if any of the conditions in step B occurred.
(1) Do a visual inspection of the EGT harness, junction box and thermocouples.
(a) If the EGT harness is chafed, repair per Ref. AMM 77-21-43-300-801 .
(b) If there is moisture accumulation in the junction box, use hot air or nitrogen to remove the
moisture Ref. AMM 77-21-43-350-801 .
(c) If there are broken stud short circuits because of misplaced safety wire or physical damage other
than harness chafing, remove, replace, or correct the applicable hardware.
(2) If you do not find a problem, do electrical checks of the EGT system Ref. AMM 77-21-43-700-010 .
(3) If you find a problem with the EGT hardware, replace the applicable hardware and return the engine
to service.
(4) If the EGT hardware is serviceable, continue to step D.

D. Refer to Overtemperature Limits for Necessary Action
NOTE: If Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) overtemperature occurs in area A1 during take-off through

E. Necessary Action
(1) If overtemperature was in the transient area for five seconds or less, no action is necessary.
(2) If overtemperature was in area A1 or A2 with one or more events, or if overtemperature was in area B
with less than ten EGT overtemperature events, perform the troubleshooting in step F.
(3) If overtemperature was in area B with ten or more EGT overtemperature events or area C with one or
more events, remove the engine from service.
NOTE: It is permissible to ferry-fly a non-revenue engine with overtemperature to a maintenance
base, but a visual inspection and a hot section borescope inspection Ref.
