Troubleshooting Recommendations:
CAUTION: Do not operate the hydraulic pumps if the unpressurized reservoir level is less than:
- 18% for the Left Hydraulic System
- 38% for the Right Hydraulic System
- 41% for the Auxiliary Hydraulic System
If the instruction is not obeyed, equipment can be damaged.
- Perform a quantity check of the hydraulic fluid in the left hydraulic system per AMM. Service the left hydraulic reservoir as required.
- Service the left hydraulic reservoir per AMM as required.
- Bleed the left hydraulic reservoir per AMM as required.
- Gain access to the MDC by pushing the AICE, ECS and FUEL buttons simultaneously on the right Cursor Control Panel.
- Select the CURRENT SERVICE MESSAGES.
- Validate that the message LOW HYDRAULICS LEVEL is not displayed.
- If the message is posted in the MDC, proceed with the quantity indicator troubleshooting procedure.
- If the message is still posted in the MDC, validate that the reservoir quantity indicator is functioning properly.
NOTE: Do not over-service the reservoir. - Add or bleed hydraulic fluid from the left hydraulic reservoir and make sure that the quantity on the reservoir visual indicator and the HYD synoptic page display varies accordingly.
- If the quantity indication on the reservoir quantity indicator or on the HYD synoptic page does NOT vary accordingly, replace the hydraulic reservoir quantity indicator per AMM and repeat troubleshooting procedure.
