Message Overview:
Message Description:
The amber 'L INBD BRAKE FAIL' caution CAS message indicates the left inboard normal system brake has failed. The respective normal brake system has failed, either from a BCV fail, wheel speed transducer fail, hydraulic fuse or shuttle valve.
Possible Causes:
- Left Inboard Brake Control Valve MPE23 (BCV)
- Failed the Pressure Pulse Test at power-up or at Gear down
- Left Inboard Wheel Speed Transducer MT91
- Left Pilot and Left Co-pilot Brake LVDT
- Left Inboard Hydraulic Fuse
- Left Inboard Shuttle Valve
Troubleshooting Tips:
Advisory Wire/Service Bulletin: None
Forum Articles/Infoservice/Newsletter: None
- One failure of the following components on the Left Inboard Brake will trigger an "L INBD BRAKE FAIL" CAS message.
- Brake Control Valve
- Wheel Speed Transducer
- Left Pilot and Left Co-Pilot Brake Linear Variable Differential Transducer (LVDT)
- Hydraulic Fuse
- Shuttle Valve

Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Verify MDC faults for following messages.
- If MDC faults from step 1 are showing, use drop down menu and troubleshoot according to specific B3 code.
- If MDC faults from step 1 are not showing, continue with next step.
- Pressurize the hydraulic system.
- Enter MDC main menu and select system parameters and record pressure using.
- Check the Left Inboard brake pressure.
- Reset the Left Inboard hydraulic fuse and hold the reset lever at the flow position.
- Press the pedal to the fully compressed position.
- If the Left Inboard brake pressure is higher than 2640 psi, go to step 8.
- If the Left Inboard brake pressure is lower than 2640 psi continue with next step.
- Replace the Left Inboard BCV (MPE23), do close out.
- Check for external leakage from the Left Inboard hydraulic fuse down to the Left Inboard brake.
- If there is no leakage, go to step 10.
- If there is leakage, continue with next step.
- Replace/Repair the leaking parts, do close out.
- Release the Left Inboard hydraulic fuse lever and keep the pedals pressed.
- If the L Inbd Brake Fail CAS message reappeared, continue with next step.
- If the L Inbd Brake Fail CAS message did not reappear, do close out.
- Replace the Left Inboard Shuttle Valve and repeat test from step 4.
- If the L Inbd Brake Fail CAS message reappeared, continue with next step.
- If the L Inbd Brake Fail CAS message did not reappear, do close out.
- Replace the Left Inboard Brake hydraulic Fuse and repeat test from step 4.
