Message Overview:
Message Description:
PSEU detects an internal SHORT in the proximity sensor PX02, Left Main Landing Gear WOW1, or in the wiring to the proximity sensor is shorted to the aircraft.
Possible Causes:
- Proximity-Sensor Electronic Unit (PSEU) (A9)
- Left Main Landing-Gear Weight-On-Wheels 1 Proximity-Sensor (PX02)
- Associated Wiring

Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Pull and reset the PSEU gear system breakers (CB1-C13, CB1-C14,CB2-C13, CB2-C14).
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Separate P511 and J511.
- Perform continuity check of LEFT MAIN GEAR WOW 1 (INBOARD) Proximity Sensor PX02 (shorted to ground = failure). Repair as required.
From: To: Expected Results: PSEU P511 Pin 4 GND ∞Ω (Open) PSEU P511 Pin 5 GND ∞Ω (Open) - If continuity checks fail, replace LEFT MAIN GEAR WOW 1 (INBOARD) Proximity Sensor PX02.
- Reconnect P511 and J511 and continue with next step.
- Does B3-007419 MDC Fault Code clear?
- If YES, do close out.
- If NO, continue with next step.
- Do continuity wiring check between PSEU A9AP1 and LEFT MAIN GEAR WOW 1 (INBOARD) Proximity Sensor PX02. Repair as required.
From: To: Expected Results: PSEU A9AP1Pin 1B J511 Pin4 ≈0Ω PSEU A9AP1Pin 2B J511 Pin5 ≈0Ω - If wiring checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Do continuity check of LEFT MAIN GEAR WOW 1 (INBOARD) Proximity Sensor PX02. Repair as required.
CAUTION: Sensor resistance should be made with a meter using a < 10 mA supply of current. Never apply voltage through a sensor!
Current will magnetize the sensor rendering it unreliable.
From: To: Expected Results: PX02 P511 pin 4 P511 pin 5 11 - 13 Ω - If PX02 checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PX02.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PSEU.
- Do close out.
