Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Check oil quantity in VFG 3. Service/refill as required.
- If system checks are good, do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Swap VFG 3 oil pressure switch with VFG 4 oil pressure switch.
- If system checks are good, replace VFG 3 oil pressure switch and do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Swap the GCU 3 with GCU 2 (physically or using the GCU patch cable).
NOTE: Use PMAT to monitor the fault on GCU.- If system checks are good, replace GCU 3 and do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Disconnect connector GCU 3 (A58P2) and VFG 3 (G3P2).
- Perform wiring checks (closed circuit= failure) within G3P2 as follow:
From To Result G3P2-A G3P2-B - If wiring checks are not good, repair defective wiring as required and do close out.
- If wiring checks are good, continue with next step.
- Replace VFG 3.
- Do close out.
