3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 79-33-00-710-112-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. Do an engine run to idle to confirm repair of this fault AMM 71-00-00-860-822 or AMM 71-00-00-860-823.
   (1) Shutdown the engine AMM 71-00-00-860-814.
   (2) 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 circuit for the Low Oil Pressure (LOP) switch is out of range or rate in channel A or channel B. The LOP signal is sent to the EEC from the Engine Indicating Unit (EIU). The LOP switch is mounted on the oil control manifold, located at the 9 o'clock position. The EEC is located on the fan case at the 2 o'clock position.
   (3) 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.
   (4) 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 AND ENGINE OIL 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 79-33-00-810-095-A ** ON A/C NOT FOR ALL
A. If there is confirmation of the fault:
   (1) Open the thrust reverser cowl-doors AMM 78-36-00-010-802.
   (2) Examine the LOP pressure switch harness (4155KS) and connector P70 (4080KS-P70) - LOP switch (4080KS), for problems which are possible between the EEC (4000KS) and the LOP switch (4080KS).
     (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 harness or connectors:
       1 Replace LOP switch harness (4155KS) AMM 71-51-40-000-801 and AMM 71-51-40-400-801.
       2 Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (3) If no problems are found with the harness or the fault continues, use a PLIERS - JAWED, SOFT to disconnect electrical connector P70 (4080KS-P70) from the LOP switch (4080KS).
     (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 electrical connector P70 (4080KS-P70) to the LOP switch (4080KS).
     (d) Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (4) If the fault continues:
     (a) Replace SW-LOW OIL PRESS [4080KS] AMM 79-33-25-000-801 and AMM 79-33-25-400-801.
     (b) Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (5) If no problems are found from the LOP switch (4080KS) or the fault continues:
     (a) Disconnect electrical connector P70 (4080KS-P70) from the LOP switch (4080KS). Use a MULTIMETER - STANDARD to test the LOP switch (4080KS) circuits in the LOP switch harness (4155KS). Refer to Table 1. 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 LOP Switch Harness (4155KS) AMM 71-51-40-000-801 and AMM 71-51-40-400-801.
       2 Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (6) If no problems are found with the harnesses or the fault continues, check the aircraft wiring:
     (a) Reconnect all connectors.
     (b) Check the status of LOP in Engine Interface Unit (EIU) AMM 73-25-34-860-806.
       1 Check the status is at 1.
       2 If the status is not correct, repair or replace aircraft wiring AWM 732560.
       3 If the status is correct, replace EIU-1 [1KS1] or EIU-2 [1KS2] AMM 73-25-34-000-802 and AMM 73-25-34-400-802.
     (c) Do the test given in Para. 3.
   (7) If no problems are found and the fault continues:
     (a) Replace the [4000KS] AMM 73-21-01-000-801 and AMM 73-21-01-400-801.
     (b) Do the test given in Para. 3.
5. Close-up
Subtask 79-33-00-860-069-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.
     (a) Close the thrust reverser cowl-doors AMM 78-36-00-410-802.
