Message Description:
Proximity Sensor Electronic Unit (PSEU) detects an internal SHORT in the Proximity Sensor PX16 Passenger Door Locked1 or in the wiring to the Proximity Sensor is shorted to the aircraft.
Possible Causes:
- Proximity Sensor Electronic Unit (PSEU) (A9)
- Passenger Door Locked 1 Proximity Sensor (PX16)
- 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.
- Remove the PSEU from its rack and disconnect the splice SP126.
- Do wiring checks (shorted to ground = failure) between SP126 (pins A2, B2) and ground. Repair as required.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PX16.
NOTE: 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. Sensor resistance is typically 11 to 13 Ω.- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Replace PSEU.
- Do close out.
