Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Disconnect SDU connector A228CP1 and RFU connector A240CP1. Inspect the Coaxial cable connector on both ends and make sure it is not damaged or contaminated.
- If the checks are not good, repair/replace defective coaxial cable as required and do close out.
- If the checks are good, continue with next step.
- Perform a continuity check as follows:
From To Result A228CP1-12 Ground A228CP1-12 Outer connector (Shield) - If there is continuity, repair/replace defective coaxial cable as required and do close out.
- If there is no continuity, continue with next step.
- Perform a continuity check as follows:
From To Result A228CP1-12 A240CP1-12 - If there is no continuity, repair/replace defective coaxial cable as required and do close out.
- If there is continuity, continue with next step.
- Replace the RFU. Is the fault still present?
- If NO, do close out.
- If YES, continue with next step.
- Replace the SDU.
- Do close out.
