Troubleshooting Recommendations:

  1. Reset CVR Circuit Breaker (CB1-D6) (A/C 20501 - 20739 Pre SB 350-31-004) or CVR Circuit Breaker (CB2-D7) (A/C 20501 - 20739 Post SB 350-31-004 and A/C 20740 and SUBS). Is the fault message still present?
    1. If YES, continue with next step.
    2. If NO, do close out.

  2. Confirm presence of the 28 VDC by measuring VDC between A129P1 pin 9 and GND (A129P1 pin 17 Chassis Ground) at the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) (A129) (Pre SB 350-23-009) / Recorder Independent Power Supply (RIPS) (A229) (Post SB 350-23-009).

    Measurement at: Chassis GND: Expected Result: Result:
    Conn. A129P1 - 9 GND or (A129P1 - 17) 28 VDC

    1. If YES, go to Step 3.
    2. If NO, check CVR Impact Switch (S142) and perform wiring check between the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) (A129) (Pre SB 350-23-009) / Recorder Independent Power Supply (RIPS) (A229) (Post SB 350-23-009) and Circuit Breaker for the following wires:

      From: To: Expected Result: Result:
      CB1-D6 CBP1J3 pin 2
      or
      CB2-D7 CBP2J3 pin 7
      JB2BP1 pin 23
      A129P1 pin 9 JB2BP1 pin 23
      A129P1 pin 17 Ground Stud (GS 4032)

      1. If the check is satisfactory, continue with next step.
      2. If the check is not satisfactory, repair/replace defective wiring.

  3. Replace Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) (A129) (Pre SB 350-23-009) / Recorder Independent Power Supply (RIPS) (A229) (Post SB 350-23-009). Is the fault message still present?

    1. If YES, do close out.
    2. If NO, continue with next step.

  4. Perform wiring check CVR-1 A429 HS Output to DCU1 per the following table:

    From: To: Expected Result: Result:
    Conn. A129P1 - 51 DCU1 A14BP1 pin 12G
    Conn. A129P1 - 50 DCU1 A14BP1 pin 12H

    1. If the check is satisfactory, continue with step next step.
    2. If the check is not satisfactory, repair the defective wiring.

  5. Is the fault message still present?

    1. If YES, do close out.
    2. If NO, replace DCU1.

  6. Do close out.
