Message Overview:
Message Description:
The right flap position analog input is invalid. Verify the R FPIU and aircraft wiring.
Possible Causes:
- Flap Position Sensor (RH) (MPE78)
- Flap Control Unit (FCU) (A124)
- Stall Protection Computer (SPC) (A178)
- Associated Wiring
Troubleshooting Tips:
Advisory Wire/Service Bulletin:
- AW300-27-0058 - "STALL PROTECT FAIL" Nuisance CAS Message
Forum Articles/Infoservice/Newsletter: None
Should the MDC CURRENT FAULTS and/or FAULT HISTORY exhibit bit 13 and/or bit 16 set on the Label 352 under the FCU, the following steps should be performed on the ground in order to clear the messages:
- Cycle power using circuit breakers CB1-B13 Flap L IND, CB1-B14 Flap CTRL and CB2-B12 Flap R IND CTRL.
- Reset the FCU by pressing the FCU reset button ref. AMM ATA 27-52-00.
NOTE: A power cycling is necessary before pushing the reset button. The power cycling will reactivate the FCU and clear the CAS messages and associated MDC Faults.

Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Do the electrical rigging of the flap system.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- In the MAINTENANCE MAIN MENU, select LRU RIGGING / FLAP CTRL UNIT / RIGGING / POSITION SENSORS.
NOTE: Flap Position Indication Unit is a dual resolver type. The signal triggering the CAS message is not the same that gives flap position on the flight control synoptic page.
- If four Flap Position Sensors are shown with corresponding values (no dashes), go to step 5.
- If a Flap Position Sensor show magenta dashes, continue with next step.
- Check corresponding Flap Position Sensor.
NOTE: All pins should ring open to the case or ground. In-flight failures may be due to moisture and freezing, pack the sensor in ice/dry-ice to simulate faults in flight, then recheck the resistance.

- If R FPIU resistance within tolerance, continue with next step.
- Do wiring checks between R FPIU and FCU.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Reset circuit breakers CB2-B12 FLAP R IND/CTRL, CB1-B14 FLAP CTRL and CB1-B13 FLAP L IND.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Re-rack FCU.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace FCU.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Reset the following circuit breakers and perform the Pilot Activated Test (PAT) of the Stall Protection System on the Systems Test control-panel located on the center pedestal.

- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Re-rack SPC.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Do wiring checks between FCU and SPC. Repair as require.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace SPC.
- Do close out.
