Fuel Depulse activated on Engine 2

1. Possible Causes
NOTE: The annunciation of the Fuel Depulse activation as a Class 3 fault has been introduced by EEC software
standard SCN 19 (Reference SB ENG 73-0197). For Pre SB ENG 73-0197 software standards, this procedure
is not applicable.

3. Fault Confirmation
Subtask 80-00-00-860-091-A
A. Job Set-up
(1) Energize the aircraft electrical circuits
Ref. AMM 24-41-00-861-002 .
(2) On the panel 50VU, release the ENG FADEC GND PWR 2 pushbutton switch.
Subtask 80-00-00-710-144-A
B. Test
(1) Adjust the brightness of the MCDU screen.
(2) Read the CLASS 3 fault report of the FADEC (2A and 2B) menu on the MCDU Ref.
AMM 31-32-00-869-002 .
(a) Make a record of the maintenance message.
NOTE: Fuel depulse is an integral part of the autostart function which is intended to enhance
starting capability. A fuel depulse does not constitute a failure as such, but indicates a
condition, which caused the compressor to stall during start.
(3) Fully decrease the brightness of the MCDU screen (display off).
4. Fault Isolation
Subtask 80-00-00-810-114-A
A. If the clear language message FUEL DEPULSE ACTIVATED was set in conjunction with an exceedance
of the EGT limit during start:
· follow (Ref. TSM 77-00-00-810-931) .
Subtask 80-00-00-810-117-A
B. If the clear language message FUEL DEPULSE ACTIVATED was set in conjunction with an experienced
Hung start:
· follow (Ref. TSM 80-00-00-810-820) .
Subtask 80-00-00-810-118-A
C. If the clear language message FUEL DEPULSE ACTIVATED was set without observation of the above:
· do functional test of the HPC stage 7 bleed valve Ref. AMM 75-32-52-700-011 .
· do functional test of the HPC stage 10 bleed valve Ref. AMM 75-32-54-700-011 .

301 Task Supporting Data).
5. Close-up
Subtask 80-00-00-860-092-A
A. Put the aircraft back to its initial configuration.
(1) On the ECAM control panel, set the UPPER DISPLAY and LOWER DISPLAY potentiometers to OFF.
Ref. AMM 31-60-00-860-002 .
(2) On the panel 50VU, push the ENG FADEC GND PWR 2 pushbutton switch.
(3) De-energize the aircraft electrical circuits
Ref. AMM 24-41-00-862-002 .
(4) Make sure that the fan cowls 437AL and 438AR are closed Ref. AMM 71-13-00-410-010 .
