Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Verify the Steering Feedback link for any play.
- If there is play, disconnect the steering Feedback link to isolate the play.
- Replace any component that has play.
NOTE: The tapered pin can be swagged to eliminate play on the lever. - Redo the rigging of the RVT.
- If there is no play, continue with next step.
- Jack the aircraft.
- Put the aircraft in a Weight-on-Wheel configuration.
- Verify if the Nose Steering Indicator aligns with the 0° position on the nose wheel position placard.
- If the steering indicator aligns with the 0° position, continue with next step, if it does not align go to step 6.
- On the RVT receptacle.
- Verify wiring between pins 1 and 2 also pins 3 and 4.
- Resistance should be between 127 Ω to 154 Ω.
- Verify wiring between pins 5 and 8 also pins 6 and 7.
- Resistance should be between 180 Ω to 218 Ω.
- If resistance value are not within tolerances.
- Replace RVT.
- After replacement of RVT go to step 9.
- If the steering indicator does not align with the 0° position.
- Mark the new position of the 0° on the Nose Steering Indicator.
- Remove the aircraft from the Weight-On-Wheel configuration.
- Lower the aircraft on ground.
- Carry out task 32-51-29-820-802 Rigging of the RVT or task 32-51-00-820-801 Rigging of the NWSS or task 32-51-00-820-802 Bias correction of the Steering, depending on the task to be carried out.
- If code 7 still showing on the 7-segment display of the SCU.
- Replace SCU.
