NOTE: Review the Auto Throttle "AT Diagnostic Information", to find details about the MDC Data Reader Labels & bits.
NOTE: Bombardier recommends referencing the elements one (1) through eleven(11) of the "Wiring & Connections" Troubleshooting Tips document. The intent of the document is to ensure the Maintenance Technician has the information needed to perform a comprehensive check of an aircraft system wiring circuit, while also doing checks found in the From - To tables called out in the Troubleshooting Recommendations element.

Troubleshooting Recommendations:

  1. Using the MDC, navigate to Current Faults, check for CAS or MDC Faults associated with the engine FADEC. Resolve active CAS & MDC Faults associated with the engine FADEC prior to starting this troubleshooting.
  2. Make sure the Autothrottle (AT) Computer Circuit Breaker (CB2-A8) is set to IN.

    1. If the CB was set to OUT, investigate the reason and set it back to IN if possible, confirm faults related to the AT system have cleared and do close out.
    2. If the CB was already set to IN, continue with next step.

  3. Interchange the right Input/Output Concentrator (IOC) card in the IAPS with the left IOC card. Is the fault still present on the same side?

    1. If YES, return the IOC cards to their original position and continue with next step.
    2. If NO, replace defective IOC card.

  4. Remove the AT computer (A252) and disconnect Integrated Avionics Processing System (IAPS) connector A4P101.
  5. Do a wiring check between the AT Computer (A252) and the IAPS (A4) as follows:
    NOTE: Refer to the "Wiring & Connections" document found in the Troubleshooting Tips ↑ element of this page.
  6. From To Expected Result Result
    A252P1-7 A4P101-69 Continuity
    A252P1-8 A4P101-70 Continuity

    1. If wiring defects are found, repair defective wiring as required and do close out.
    2. If no defects are found, continue with next step.

  7. Replace the AT Computer (A252)
  8. Do close out.
