Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Disconnect the Left Battery Sensor (MPE073) connector located in the Left DC Power Center (A35). Do visual inspection of the connector and associated wiring for any loose pins and/or damaged wire.
- If inspection is satisfying, continue with next step.
- If inspection is not satisfying, go to step 4.
- Interchange Left Battery Sensor (MPE073) with the Right Battery Sensor (MPE074). Is the fault message still present?
- If YES, continue with next step.
- If NO, replace the defective Battery Sensor.
- Interchange the Left DC Power-Center Protection (PCB1) with the Right Power-Center Protection (PCB2). Is the fault message still present?
- If YES, continue with next step.
- If NO, replace the defective DC Power-Center Protection.
- Replace Left DC Power-Center (A35).
- Do close out.
