Message Overview:
Message Description:
PSEU detects an OPEN circuit within the proximity sensor PX03 Right Nose Gear WOFW1 or in the wiring to the proximity sensor or aircraft.
Possible Causes:
- Proximity-Sensor Electronic Unit (PSEU) (A9)
- Nose Landing-Gear Weight-Off-Wheels 1 Proximity-Sensor (PX03)
- Associated Wiring
Troubleshooting Tips:
Advisory Wire/Service Bulletin: None

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.
- Do continuity wiring check between PSEU A9AP1 and NOSE GEAR WOFW 1 (RIGHT) Proximity Sensor PX03. Repair as required.
From: To: Expected Results: PSEU A9AP1Pin 1C J165 Pin6 ≈0Ω PSEU A9AP1Pin 2C J165 Pin18 ≈0Ω - If wiring checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Do continuity check of NOSE GEAR WOFW 1 (RIGHT) Proximity Sensor PX03. 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: PX03 P165 Pin 6 P165 Pin18 11 - 13 Ω - If PX03 checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PX03.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PSEU.
- Do close out.
