- If system checks are good, replace GCU 3 and do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Perform wiring checks between GEN 3 and GCU 3 as follows:
From To Result G3P1-G A58P1-E - If wiring checks are not good, repair wiring as required and do close out.
- If wiring checks are good, continue with next step.
- Replace GEN 3.
- Do close out.
