Failure of the GPWC A320

1.Possible Causes:

-GPWC (1WZ)

-C/B-EIS/GPWS/115VAC (3WZ)

-short to ground at the wiring between the circuit breaker (3WZ) and the GPWC (1WZ)

SUBTASK 34-48-00-740-050-C

B. Test

(1) If the circuit breaker (3WZ) trips, refer to Para. 4. C. of this trouble shooting procedure.

(2) Do the BITE test of the Enhanced GPWS Ref. AMM 34-48-00-740-002.

— If the BITE test is not possible, refer to Para. 4. B. of this trouble shooting procedure.

4. Fault Isolation

SUBTASK 34-48-00-810-050-A

A. If the circuit breaker (3WZ) is closed, and if the BITE test gives the maintenance message GPWC (1WZ):

— replace the GPWC (1WZ) Ref. AMM 34-48-34-000-001 and Ref. AMM 34-48-34-400-001.

SUBTASK 34-48-00-810-051-A

B. If the circuit breaker (3WZ) is closed and if the BITE test is not possible

— do a check for 115VAC at pin AC/2 of the GPWC.

(1) If there is no 115VAC:

— do a check of the wiring of the 115VAC signal from circuit breaker (3WZ) to GPWC (1WZ) Ref. ASM 34-48-01.

(a) If there is no continuity:

— repair the above wiring.

(b) If there is continuity:

— replace the C/B-EIS/GPWS/115VAC (3WZ).

(2) If there is 115VAC:

— do a check of the wiring of the ground signal at GPWC pin AC/3.

(a) If there is no continuity:

— repair the above wiring.

SUBTASK 34-48-00-810-093-A

C. If the circuit breaker (3WZ) is open:

— close this circuit breaker.

(1) If the circuit breaker (3WZ) trips:

— remove the GPWC (1WZ) Ref. AMM 34-48-34-000-001.

— close the circuit breaker (3WZ).

(a) If this circuit breaker stays closed:

— install the GPWC Ref. AMM 34-48-34-400-001

1 If the circuit breaker trips again:

— replace the GPWC Ref. AMM 34-48-34-000-001 and Ref. AMM 34-48-34-400-001.

(b) If this circuit breaker trips again:

— do a check for a short to ground at the wiring between the circuit breaker (3WZ) and the GPWC (1WZ) Ref. ASM 34-48-01.

1 If there is a short to ground:

— repair the above wiring.

2 If there is no short to ground:

— replace the C/B-EIS/GPWS/115VAC (3WZ).

3 Install the GPWC Ref. AMM 34-48-34-400-001.

SUBTASK 34-48-00-740-051-A

D. Do the test given in Para. 3.B.
