- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Swap PFDs.
- If system check passes, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Swap MFDs.
- If system check passes, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Do the wiring checks of the 2 discretes RA DISPLAY 2 STATUS OUT from R PFD connector A26P2 and R MFD connector A28P2, through Junction Box 1, to TCAS/XPDR1 connector A238EP1. Repair / Replace as required.
