Q

LDGGR_08

Discuss the normal, alternate, and parking brake operations.

ALTERNATE

Antiskid will not be available if alternate braking is active due to either:

  • A failure of ______ ______ of the BSCU or the A/SKID & NWS switch selected _______.
  • Low _____ and _____ hydraulic pressure (only accumulator pressure is available).

The diagram below illustrates how the brake system is configured with the brakes applied in alternate braking as a result of a loss of both channels of the BSCU.
