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 RTL values are displayed when FCU SPOST #1 or SPOST #2 (HYD ON) is successfully completed. (i.e flight control reset procedure).
- RUDDER TRAVEL LIM POS XDCR (DEG) tolerance is ±0.5 DEG.
- RUDDER TRAVEL LIM ACT POS (INCHES) tolerance is ±0.01 IN.
The position of the RTL can be found in CAIMS:

Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Swap FCU 2 with FCU 1.
- If system checks are good, replace FCU 2. Reset FCUs latched faults and do close out.
- If fault remains, continue with next step.
- Perform wiring checks between FCU 2 to the rudder travel limiter position transducer 2 (MT168).
- 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 the Rudder Travel Limiter Position Transducer 2.
- Do close out.
