This fault may sometime be cleared by performing the flight control system reset procedure. If the message comes back more then once within 10 flight legs, troubleshooting is required.
NOTE: If FCUs are swapped/replaced, ensure proper system tests are carried out to clear latched faults retained in the FCU prior to swap.
The pitch feel actuator information can be found in the CAIMS system diagnostic:
- SYSTEM DIAG
- 27-00 FLIGHT CONTROLS
- FLIGHT CONTROL UNIT #1
- LRU TEST
- DISPLAY PITCH FEEL DATA
- CONFIRM
The Pitch feel Actuator can also be simulated on CAIMS in case the fault cleared:

Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Swap FCU 1 with FCU 2 and clear FCU latched faults. Is the fault still present?
- If YES, continue with next step.
- If NO, replace defective FCU.
- Perform wiring checks between FCU 1 and Pitch Feel Actuator 1.
- If wiring defects are found, repair defective wiring as required and do close out.
- If no defects are found, continue with next step.
- Replace Pitch Feel Actuator 1.
- Do close out.
