Troubleshooting Recommendations:
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the ACPC Mother Board connectors, ensure that the jumper wire pins outside diameter (OD) does not exceed 0.025 inch.
- Swap GCU 3 with GCU 4.
- If system checks are good, replace GCU 3 and do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Swap ACPC Primary Logic card 2 with ACPC Primary Logic card 3.
- If system checks are good, replace ACPC Primary Logic card 2 and do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Perform wiring checks between GCU#3, ACPC and P301.
- If wiring checks are not good, repair the defective wiring and do close out.
- If wiring checks are good, continue with next step.
NOTE: Disconnect GCU#3 connector and remove ACPC PLC#2 to measure for short/open circuit.
- Replace ACPC.
- Do close out.
