Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Make sure the SATCOM ANT CTLR circuit breaker is set to IN on the EMS CDU.
- If the circuit breaker is set to IN, continue with next step.
- If the circuit breaker is not set to IN, set it to in and do close out.
- Disconnect ACU connector A227P1. Perform a 28 VDC voltage check as follows:
From To Result A227P1-V A227P1-P A227P1-Y A227P1-S - If there is no 28 VDC, investigate wiring interface and power source (SPDA 4) and do close out.
- If there is 28 VDC, continue with next step.
- Disconnect SDU connector A228BP1. Perform a continuity check as follows:
From To Result A228BP1-G7 Ground A228BP1-H7 Ground A228BP1-G7 A228BP1-H7 - If there is continuity, repair defective wiring as required and do close out.
- If there is no continuity, continue with next step.
- Perform a continuity check as follows:
From To Result A228BP1-G7 A227P1-G A228BP1-H7 A227P1-H - If there is no continuity, repair defective wiring as required and do close out.
- If there is continuity, continue with next step.
- Replace the ACU. Is the fault still present?
- If NO, do close out.
- If YES, continue with next step.
- Replace the SDU.
- Do close out.
