Troubleshooting Recommendations:
- Remove the applicable audio panel(s) and the cover from the junction box JB3 to get access to the circuit card. Perform a continuity check for open circuits between the pins of LSS PROCESSOR connector (A224BP1), JB3, PCB5, LSS RELAY (K34), SPDA 3 connector (A15P2), AUDIO PANEL 1 connector (A8P1), AUDIO PANEL 2 connector (A9P1) and AUDIO PANEL 3 connector (A215P1) as follows:
For the LSS processor (A224):From To Result A224BP1-24 JB3/PCB5/K34-A1 A224BP1-25 JB3/PCB5/K34-A2 JB3/PCB5/K34-X1 A15P2-H For the audio panel 1 (A8):
NOTE: This interface contains a diode. Set the multimeter to the diode test position and take the measurements with the polarities shown.From To Resistance Result A8P1-X (+) JB3/PCB5/K34-X2 (-) High (reverse biased) A8P1-X (-) JB3/PCB5/K34-X2 (+) Low (forward biased) For the audio panel 2 (A9):
NOTE: This interface contains a diode. Set the multimeter to the diode test position and take the measurements with the polarities shown.From To Resistance Result A9P1-X (+) JB3/PCB5/K34-X2 (-) High (reverse biased) A9P1-X (-) JB3/PCB5/K34-X2 (+) Low (forward biased) For the audio panel 3 (A215):
NOTE: This interface contains a diode. Set the multimeter to the diode test position and take the measurements with the polarities shown.
On A/C Post SB 700-23-002:From To Resistance Result A215P1-X (+) JB3/PCB5/K34-X2 (-) High (reverse biased) A215P1-X (-) JB3/PCB5/K34-X2 (+) Low (forward biased) - If there is an open circuit, repair or replace the defective wiring as required and do close out
- If there is no open circuit, continue with next step.
- Check if there is a short circuit between the pins of LSS PROCESSOR connector (A224BP1), AUDIO PANEL 1 connector (A8P1), AUDIO PANEL 2 connector (A9P1), AUDIO PANEL 3 connector (A215P1) and Aircraft Ground as follows:
For the LSS processor (A224):From To Result A224BP1-24 Ground A224BP1-25 Ground For the audio panel 1 (A8):
From To Result A8P1-X Ground For the audio panel 2 (A9):
From To Result A9P1-X Ground For the audio panel 3 (A215) (On A/C Post SB 700-23-002):
From To Result A215P1-X Ground - If there is a short circuit, repair or replace the defective wiring as required and install the audio panel(s).
- If there is no short circuit, continue with next step
- Replace LSS relay, circuit card 5 from junction box JB3, LSS processor.
- Do close out.
