Message Description:
Proximity Sensor Electronics Unit (PSEU) Channel B input fault detected by Horizontal Stabilizer Electronic Control Unit (HST ECU).
Possible Causes:
- Horizontal-Stabilizer-Trim Electronic-Control Unit (HST ECU) (A130)
- Proximity-Sensor Electronic Unit (PSEU) (A9)
- Right Input/Output Concentrator (R IOC) (A4-IOC2)
- Associated Wiring
Troubleshooting Tips:
Advisory Wire/Service Bulletin:
- AW300-27-0081 - Spoiler Electronic Control Unit (SECU) and Horizontal Stabilizer Electronic Control Unit (HSTECU) - Cold Temperature Circuit Breaker Reset Procedure (20501 - 20999)
Forum Articles/Infoservice/Newsletter: None
Performed the AW300-27-0081 reset procedure for the HST ECU if the message is displayed during initial power-up in cold temperature. The stab trim position indication on EICAS can also flash on and off. Check if there is other MDC equation related to proximity sensor.

Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Pull the HST ECU breaker CB1 - B15, and CB2 - B13, reset after a couple seconds. This will re-boot the HST ECU.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Do wiring checks (data bus) between PSEU, HST ECU, JB1 and JB2. Repair as required.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Swap IOCs.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PSEU.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace HST ECU.
- Do close out.
