Lights Flashcards
Gen 2 or Gen 3, Gen 4 or Apu Gen off light on.
Probable Cause
Generator failure, off frequency, overvoltage, undervoltage, feeder fault, supervisory panel failure, or associated bus monitoring switch off.
NOTE
if the APU gen control CB is out the apu gen off light will be on. Automatic load monitoring above 8000’ will be disabled however the genterator will assume the load.
Transformer rectifier overheat.
Probable Cause
Transformer rectifier (TR) overheated.
External power light on (neon)
Probable Cause
Indicates electrical power is connected to the A/C
Gen 2 or Gen 3, Gen 4 or Apu Gen off light on.
Corrective Action
Use reset procedures or place associated bus monitoring switch on. if an eng driven gen light remains on throughout reset procedures, or goes out momentarily mission should be aborted.
CAUTION
Generator supervisory panels shall not be exchanged until appropriate maintenance actions have been performed.
NOTE
Ensure Gen 4 aux and Gen 4 trans Cb’s are set appropriately.
Transformer rectifier overheat.
Corrective Action
Corrective action: Pull respective cb; No. 3 located at the flight station, Nos. 1,2,4 and 5 located at the main load center.
External power light on (neon)
Corrective Action
Light will glow whether or not external power is selected
External Power Avail. light on: But no Power Into A/C
Probable Cause
Wrong Phase, nose gear uplock not properly positioned, battery not connected, Gen No. 4 RAR feeder cb out, external power control cb out.
External Power Avail. light on: But no Power Into A/C
Corrective Action
Move external power switch to reset then on, check nose gear uplock position, check battery condition, check No. 4 RAR feeder cb, check external power control cb.
External Power Avail. light on: Partial power into aircraft
Probable Cause
TR 3 ganged cb out. Ess. DC bus feeder cb No.2 out, MEAC ganged cb behind CoPilot out, mon ess. bus switch off.
External Power Avail. light on: Partial power into aircraft
Corrective Action
Check TR 3 cb, check ess dc bus feeder cb no.2, check meac ganged cb in. check mon ess bus switch
External Power Light on
Probable Cause
External power supplying power to A/C system
External Power Light on
Corrective action
External Power switch is on
PRIMARY FUEL PUMP FAILURE LIGHT:
No. 1,2,3 or 4 Primary Fuel pump (parallel) light on during start (between 16 and 65 percent rpm)
Probable cause
indicates the secondary fuel pump is functioning properly.
PRIMARY FUEL PUMP FAILURE LIGHT:
No. 1,2,3 or 4 Primary Fuel pump (parallel) light on during start (between 16 and 65 percent rpm)
corrective action
N/A
PRIMARY FUEL PUMP FAILURE LIGHT:
No. 1,2,3 or 4 Primary Fuel pump (parallel) light off during start (between 16 and 65 percent rpm)
Probable cause
Failure of the secondary pump.
PRIMARY FUEL PUMP FAILURE LIGHT:
No. 1,2,3 or 4 Primary Fuel pump (parallel) light on during start (between 16 and 65 percent rpm)
Corrective action
Investigate
PRIMARY FUEL PUMP FAILURE LIGHT:
No. 1,2,3 or 4 Primary Fuel pump (parallel) light on, or momentarily on then off above 65 percent rpm
probable cause
a. Failure of the primary pump
b. Fuel pumps are in parallel operation possibly due to a speed sense control malfunction.
PRIMARY FUEL PUMP FAILURE LIGHT:
No. 1,2,3 or 4 Primary Fuel pump (parallel) light on, or momentarily on then off above 65 percent rpm
Corrective action
Pull fuel SOV cb on sedc
a. If the light remains on, reset the cb, and assume the primary pump has failed
b. If the light goes out leave the CB out and assume a failure of either the 65% switch or the speed sense control.
NOTE:
- Do not use Autofx
- Should maximum Tit be limited to approximately 830*c with or without the paralleling light assume a failure of either the 94% switch or the speed sense control Place the affected TD to null and pull the fuel SOV cb on the SEDC bus
- Do not shutdown the affected eng with the intent to restart.
- Reset the CB prior to securing the engine with the F/I switch.
No 1,2,3, and 4 autofx lights are all on
probable cause
The automatic feathering circuit has been armed.
