Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Do wiring check between the APU ECU (A39) and the EGT Sensor (TC2) for the following wires:
From To Result Conn. A39AP1-2A EGT Sensor Lug + (CR) Conn. A39AP1-1A EGT Sensor Lug - (AL) - If the check is satisfactory, continue with next step.
- If the check is not satisfactory, repair defective wiring.
NOTE: Lugs must be disconnected from the EGT Sensor while doing the wiring check.
- Replace the EGT Sensor (TC2). Is the fault message still present?
- If NO, do close out.
- If YES, continue with next step.
- Replace APU ECU (A39).
- Do close out.
