INTRODUCTION
1. General
A. This manual provides fault isolation procedures and tasks for the model EMC-35A and EMC-35R
FADEC fuel control systems, parts of which are supplied by Goodrich Pump & Engine Control
Systems Inc., Charter Oak Boulevard, PO Box 330651, West Hartford, Connecticut, 06133-0651.
B. These procedures are applicable to Bell 407 helicopter models equipped with the Goodrich Pump &
Engine Control Systems EMC-35A and EMC-35R FADECs.
C. In subsequent revisions to this manual, changes or additions to the text, tables or illustrations will be
indicated by a vertical line in the left margin of affected material.
D. The following sections of the Fault Isolation Manual explain the FADEC system, the structure of the
manual, execution of the FIM tasks, abbreviations and acronyms used, a description of the on-board
maintenance systems, and the location of various equipment within the aircraft.
2. FADEC System Description
A. The EMC-35A and EMC-35R fuel control systems provide complete, automatic control of the Rolls
Royce Model 250-C47B turboshaft engine. The system is commonly known as a FADEC system (full-
authority digital electronic control). A block diagram representation is provided in Figure 1.
B. The EMC-35A and EMC-35R FADEC systems comprise two major components;
(1) The Electronic Control Unit (ECU), and
(2) The Hydromechanical Unit (HMU).
C. The ECU is mounted in an accessory compartment above the cabin in the Bell 407 helicopter.
D. The HMU comprises two separate modules, or sections, which are bolted together - a high-pressure
fuel pump and a fuel metering section. Together, these two modules are mounted to the engine
accessories gearbox which is mechanically driven by the gas generator rotor (Ng).
E. The EMC-35R FADEC system is identical to the original EMC-35A with the exception of the ECU unit.
The EMC-35A and the EMC-35R ECUs have identical electrical interfaces and are interchangeable.
The difference between the two units can be summarized as follow:
(1) The EMC-35A ECU is a single electronic channel unit. This unit is shown in figure 2.
(2) The EMC-35R ECU is a dual electronic channel unit. This unit is shown in figure 3 where the
added channel is identified. The two electronic channels are also called governors and they are:
(a) The Primary Governor (PG) channel which is functionally similar to the EMC-35A single
channel.
(b) The Reversionary Governor (RG) channel can take over the control of the engine for given
PG channel failures. All inputs and outputs that are necessary for reversionary governor
operations are typically shared inside the ECU (a limited number of signals are dedicated to
one channel). Figure 4 illustrates the signal sharing performed inside the EMC-35R ECU
between the PG and RG.
F. The EMC-35A and EMC-35R FADEC systems have the following software version(s) depending on
their ECU part number:
SOFTWARE VERSION NUMBER
PRIMARY REVERSIONARY
FADEC SYSTEM ECU PART NUMBER GOVERNOR GOVERNOR
EMC-35A 113500-XXX-5100 V5100 N/A
EMC-35A 113500-XXX-5202 V5202 N/A
EMC-35R 115220-XXX-20 V5356 V9026
EMC-35R 115220-XXX-23 V5358 V9029
Note: the digits “XXX” do not affect the software version number.
G. The EMC-35A control system has two primary modes of operation: Auto and Manual.
(1) In Auto mode, the ECU provides control of the engine based on the cockpit selection. The
following functions are supported when in auto mode:
Automatic start with starter and ignitor operation.
Gas generator (Ng) speed control.
Ng power modulation based on Power Lever Angle (PLA).
Power Turbine (Np) Speed Control
Temperature limiting.
Flameout detection.
Automatic relight.
Surge detection, recovery, and avoidance.
Quiet mode (Optional).
Cockpit indication.
Fault detection, accommodation and annunciation.
Engine Condition Monitoring.
(2) In Manual mode, a simple mechanical backup integral to the HMU provides the pilot with a get-
home capability. In this mode, there is no power turbine governing and there are no limiters, with
the exception of power turbine overspeed limiting which is always available as long as there is
electrical power to the ECU.
H. The EMC-35R control system has the same two primary modes of operation as the EMC-35A: Auto
and Manual.
(1) In Auto mode, the EMC-35R differs from the EMC-35A by its added redundancy provided by the
Reversionary Governor. Hence under a no fault condition the EMC-35R ECU provides the same
functionality as the EMC-35A and the systems are functionally identical to the pilot. The difference
comes into play when the Primary Governor fails and the control of the engine is relinquished to
the Reversionary Governor (RG) to maintain Auto mode. When the RG channel is in control, the
ECU sets 100% power turbine (Np) governing. The following functions will not be supported by
the Reversionary Governor:

A. Alert/Status Message List (ASML) - Summarizes all of the FADEC system fault messages which are
displayed to the flight crew, the method by which they are announced or displayed, and their meaning.
It also lists corresponding FIM tasks or FADEC maintenance message codes.
(1) Alert Messages are faults which are detected by the FADEC system and are automatically and
visually reported to the flight crew without requiring any special actions.
(2) Status Messages are faults detected by the FADEC system and which are made available for
review only upon request or special action.
B. Observed Fault List (OFL) - Summarizes faults which are detected by the flight crew or the ground
crew, but are not reported to the flight crew by the FADEC system. Listed faults reference specific
FIM tasks.
C. Maintenance Message Code List (MML) - Summarizes all of the maintenance codes which can be
generated by the FADEC system. Listed maintenance message codes reference specific FIM tasks
or procedures.
D. Fault Isolation Manual Use (FIM USE) - Summarizes the general procedure to be followed in using
this manual for proper and efficient fault isolation.
E. Fault Isolation Tasks (TASKS) - These procedures are numbered sequentially, beginning with page
number 201, and are called out by the Alert Message, Observed Fault and Maintenance Message
Code Lists.
F. Fault Isolation Task Supporting Data (SUPPORT) - This data, beginning on page 401, provides
detailed information needed in the performance of the fault isolation tasks in the preceding section.
4. Fault Identification, Isolation and Correction
A. Fault Identification
(1) FADEC system Alert and Status Messages are annunciated by indicator lamps located on the
Caution/Warning Panel in the aircraft cockpit. A more detailed description of these indicators is
provided in subsection 7, On-Board Maintenance Systems. See subsection 8, figure 6, for an
illustration of the cockpit instrumentation.
(2) FADEC system Maintenance Message Codes are displayed using a portable Maintenance Terminal
which comprises a laptop computer, specialized interrogation software and an interfacing cable, which
connects to the FADEC ECU through a cockpit connector.
(3) If a Maintenance Terminal is not available, the Alert/Status Message list identifies corresponding
Maintenance Message Codes which can be the cause of displayed Status Messages. If more than
one Maintenance Message Code is listed for a given Status Message, it means that at least one or
more (but not necessarily all) of the Maintenance Message Codes are indicated by the FADEC ECU.
B. Fault Isolation
(1) View the FADEC system Alert indicator lamps in the cockpit and note whether they are illuminated
or not, and also note any observed faults reported by the air crew or maintenance crew (details
provided in subsection 7 and FIM USE section, subsection 3).
(2) Read out Maintenance Message Codes using the portable Maintenance Terminal.
(3) If Maintenance Terminal is not available, view the Status indicator lamps (“flashing lights”) in the
cockpit. List the Maintenance Message Codes corresponding to the Status Messages as per the
Alert/Status Message List (details provided in subsection 7 and FIM USE section, subsection 3).
(4) Perform the FIM Tasks referenced by the Alert Message, Observed Fault and Maintenance
Message Code Lists.
C. Fault Correction
(1) Correct incomplete/improper installations, tighten loose connectors, or remove and replace
LRU(s) as directed by the FIM tasks.
(2) Verify that FADEC system faults are no longer present by performing the specific verification
procedures called out by each FIM task.
CAUTION: CLEARING CURRENT FAULTS WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING IS NOT ALLOWED.
(3) Clear indications for “current” faults from the FADEC ECU memory by cycling FADEC 28 VDC
electrical power or the FADEC MODE switch (indications for “last engine run” faults are
automatically cleared when the engine is re-started and a lightoff is detected).
NOTE: For the EMC-35A FADEC Systems with software version V5202, “current” faults which
are indicated because of Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt” and “WfHdFlt” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory.
NOTE: For EMC-35R FADEC Systems, “current” faults which are indicated because of
Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt”, “WfHdFlt”, “T1DFltRG” & “NpDFltRG” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory. This also applies to Maintenance Message code
“AMSwFlt” for EMC-35R FADEC Systems with software version V5358.
(4) Perform a detailed check and test of the removed component(s) as per manufacturer detailed
procedures (if available). Tested components which appear to be faulty, or components which
cannot be tested, should be returned to Rolls Royce or Bell, as appropriate.
6. Symbology Used
(2) Maintenance Message Codes (MMC) are grouped into different “categories” depending on their effect on
control system/engine operation. These different categories or fault groups are annunciated via the Alert
Message indicators listed in subparagraph (1). How the MMC’s drive the Alert Message indicators
depends if the ECU is an EMC-35A or EMC-35R:
(a) For the EMC-35A FADEC System, there are 4 different MMC groups (refer to the MML
section for listing of MMC’s with relevant group identification):
The MMC group “HARD FAULT” drives the “FADEC FAIL” lamp.
The MMC group “RESTART FAULT” drives the “RESTART FAULT” lamp.
The MMC group “FADEC FAULT” drives the “FADEC FAULT” lamp.
The MMC group “FADEC DEGRADED” drives the “FADEC DEGRADED” lamp.
(b) For the EMC-35R FADEC System there are 5 different MMC groups (refer to the MML
section for listing of MMC’s with relevant group identification):
The MMC group “PG HARD FAULT” drives the “FADEC FAIL” and the “RESTART
FAULT” lamps if the MMC group designated “RG HARD FAULT” is also set. Both a
Primary Governor (PG) and Reversionary Governor (RG) hard fault are required to turn
on the FADEC Fail lamp. If MMC’s with “PG Hard Fault” are present without MMC’s with
“RG Hard Fault”, the following three lamps will be lit: “RESTART FAULT”, “FADEC
FAULT” & “FADEC DEGRADED” (indicating that the RG is in control).
The MMC group “RG HARD FAULT” drives the “FADEC FAIL” and “RESTART FAULT”
lamps if the MMC group designated “PG HARD FAULT” is also set. If MMC’s with “RG
Hard Fault” are present without MMC’s with “PG Hard Fault”, no lamp will be lit. The RG is
hard faulted and the PG is still in control. The maintenance advisory “FADEC
DEGRADED” will be turned on once shutdown.
The MMC group “RESTART FAULT” drives the “RESTART FAULT” lamp.
The MMC group “FADEC FAULT” drives the “FADEC FAULT” lamp.
The MMC group “FADEC DEGRADED” drives the “FADEC DEGRADED” lamp.
(3) If the Maintenance Message Code does not belong to any of the categories described in subparagraph
(2), it will not be annunciated while the engine is operating since it is not considered a significant system
failure. However, when the engine is shut down, the FADEC DEGRADED lamp means a
“MAINTENANCE ADVISORY”, therefore any Maintenance Message Code will drive this lamp, whether or
not it belongs to any of the groups described in subparagraph (2).
(4) When the engine is static (Ng below 9.5 %) and the throttle is placed in the IDLE position: the FADEC
DEGRADED, FADEC FAULT and RESTART FAULT lamps annunciate “current” Maintenance Message
Codes detected only since the FADEC ECU was powered up, or since the FADEC MODE switch was
transitioned from MANUAL to AUTO. Any previously detected Maintenance Message Codes are not
displayed.
(5) When the engine is static (Ng below 9.5 %) and the throttle is placed in the CUTOFF position: the FADEC
DEGRADED, FADEC FAULT and RESTART FAULT lamps annunciate “current” and “last engine run”
Maintenance Message Codes. “Last engine run” codes are faults which were detected the last time the
engine was run, defined as the interval from engine lightoff to engine shut down. These Maintenance
Message Codes are not cleared from the FADEC ECU memory until the engine is re-started and lightoff is
detected. Cycling FADEC ECU electrical power or the FADEC MODE switch has no effect on these
codes.
(6) The FADEC FAIL lamp annunciates only “current” faults, regardless of the position of the throttle. Since
the faults are “current”, they can be cleared by cycling FADEC ECU power or cycling the FADEC MODE
switch.
NOTE: For the EMC-35A FADEC Systems with software version V5202, “current” faults which
are indicated because of Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt” and “WfHdFlt” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory.
NOTE: For EMC-35R FADEC Systems, “current” faults which are indicated because of
Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt”, “WfHdFlt”, “T1DFltRG” & “NpDFltRG” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory. This also applies to Maintenance Message code
“AMSwFlt” for EMC-35R FADEC Systems with software version V5358.
(7) FADEC system Status Messages are indicated by “flashing” of the following three C/WP lamps:
(8) Display of the Status Messages is accomplished by placing the throttle (a.k.a. PLA) in the CUTOFF or
GROUND IDLE position (with the engine shut down), the collective pitch lever in the full down position, the
FADEC MODE switch in the MAN position, and toggling the FADEC/ECU SW switch located on the left-
hand side of the lower pedestal. Location of the switch is shown in subsection 10, figure 10. With the
throttle in the CUTOFF position, “current” and “last engine run” Status Messages are displayed. With the
throttle in the GROUND IDLE position, only “current” Status Messages are displayed. Detailed
procedures for retrieval of Status Messages are described in the FIM USE section, subsection 3, Fault
Identification.
(9) Meaning of the Alert and Status Messages, and the corresponding Maintenance Message Codes, are
indicated in the Alert/Status Message List found immediately following this INTRODUCTION.
B. Electronic Control Unit
(1) FADEC system fault code data (Maintenance Message Codes) are stored in the ECU for retrieval by a
laptop computer configured with specialized software provided by Goodrich Inc. This system is referred to
as the “Maintenance Terminal”.
(2) Three levels of fault data are stored: “current” faults, “last engine run” faults, and “cumulative” fault history
(unless previously cleared from the ECU’s memory).
CAUTION: CLEARING CURRENT FAULTS WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING IS NOT ALLOWED.
(3) “Current” faults are stored in the ECU’s volatile memory (RAM) when they occur, and they can therefore
be cleared from memory by cycling the ECU’s electrical power. They can also be cleared by cycling the
FADEC MODE switch from MAN to AUTO.
NOTE: For the EMC-35A FADEC Systems with software version V5202, “current” faults which
are indicated because of Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt” and “WfHdFlt” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory.
NOTE: For EMC-35R FADEC Systems, “current” faults which are indicated because of
Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt”, “WfHdFlt”, “T1DFltRG” & “NpDFltRG” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory. This also applies to Maintenance Message code
“AMSwFlt” for EMC-35R FADEC Systems with software version V5358.
(4) “Last engine run” faults are stored in the ECU’s non-volatile memory (EEPROM) when they occur, as long
as an engine lightoff has been detected by the ECU. When an engine shutdown is detected by the ECU,
any faults which occur after that point in time are not stored to the EEPROM, and are considered to be
“current” as described in subparagraph (3). “Last engine run” faults are cleared automatically from the
ECU’s EEPROM when the engine is re-started and the ECU detects engine lightoff.
(5) “Cumulative” faults are also stored in EEPROM, and represent every fault which has ever occurred while
the engine is running. They remain in EEPROM until they are purposely cleared using the Maintenance
Terminal.
(6) The laptop computer communicates with the ECU via an industry-standard RS232 or RS423 serial digital
interface using an adapter cable also provided by Goodrich Inc. A connector is located on the left-hand
side of the lower pedestal so that the adapter cable can be connected between the ECU and the laptop
computer. Location of the connector is illustrated in subsection 10, figure 10.
Data retrieved from the ECU using the Maintenance Terminal is used with the Maintenance Message
Code List in this manual, which references appropriate FIM tasks to be performed.

(3) Intermittent short or open conditions may depend on physical positioning or movement of the wire
conductors. As such, the failure condition may only occur with physical movement such as
vibration or flexing during engine/aircraft operation or expansion or contraction due to temperature
variations. If a fault is intermittent, it is recommended to recreate conditions similar to those
encountered when the fault was detected or reported. Pay attention to whether the fault condition
changes due to harness disconnect/reconnect steps of fault isolation tasks and whether there is
possibility of looseness or opens in pin/socket/wire connections.
WARNING: HIGH VOLTAGE POTENTIAL INSULATION CHECKS AS RECOMMENDED IN THIS
MANUAL ARE A SUPPLEMENT TO VOLT-OHMMETER CHECKS. ALL SUCH
CHECKS MUST BE CONDUCTED ACCORDING TO THE PROCEDURES OF THE
COMPONENT, ENGINE OR AIRFRAME MANUFACTURER TO AVOID DAMAGE TO
COMPONENTS OR PERSONAL INJURY. DO NOT PERFORM THESE CHECKS
WITHOUT SPECIFIC APPROVAL OF THE MANUFACTURER.
(4) High voltage potential checks of harnesses or other components external to the ECU and HMU
are more effective in detecting insulation defects than volt-ohmmeter checks, particularly
intermittent problems which can occur during more severe conditions of operation.
B. Consult manufacturers’ procedures for diagnosis and troubleshooting of components other than the
ECU and HMU before removing them from the engine or airframe, or before determining that the
component can continue in service.
3. Fault Identification
A. Alert Messages (also see INTRODUCTION, subsection 7, On-Board Maintenance Systems)
NOTE: The Alert/Status Message List at the front of this manual can be used as a checklist
(1) Apply electrical power to the engine control system (1CB1, 1CB2 and 1CB16) and the cockpit
CAUTION/WARNING PANEL (4CB1). Circuit breakers are located on the overhead console in
the cockpit as illustrated in subsection 11, figure 8, of INTRODUCTION.
(2) Place the throttle in the GROUND IDLE position and confirm existence of Alert Messages by
noting if any lamps are lit. These are “current” alert messages which means faults which have
been detected by the FADEC system since ECU power up, or MAN to AUTO transition of the
FADEC MODE switch.
NOTE: For EMC-35A FADEC Systems with software version V5202, “current” faults which are
indicated because of Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt” and “WfHdFlt” are only
cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear these
codes from the ECU’s memory.
NOTE: For EMC-35R FADEC Systems, “current” faults which are indicated because of
Maintenance Message codes “StepCntFlt”, “WfHdFlt”, “T1DFltRG” & “NpDFltRG” are
only cleared by cycling electrical power; cycling the FADEC MODE switch does not clear
these codes from the ECU’s memory. This also applies to Maintenance Message code
“AMSwFlt” for EMC-35R FADEC Systems with software version V5358.
(3) Place the throttle in the CUTOFF position and confirm existence of Alert Messages by noting if
any lamps are lit. These are “last engine run” and “current” alert messages. “Last engine run”
messages are faults which occurred during the period when the engine was last running.
NOTE: FADEC FAIL only displays “current” alert messages, regardless of the position of the
throttle.
(4) The FADEC DEGRADED, FADEC FAULT and RESTART FAULT alert lamps are turned ON
depending on the type of system fault which is detected by the ECU
.
(a) Faults (MM codes) which do not require switchover to MAN mode, but cause degraded
performance of the AUTO mode, are classified as “FADEC Degraded” type faults. These are
designated in the Maintenance Message Code List.
(b) Faults (MM codes) which do not require switchover to MAN mode, but may prevent a
successful restart of the engine if it is shut down, are classified as “Restart” type faults.
These are designated in the Maintenance Message Code List.
(c) Faults (MM codes) which do not require switchover to MAN mode, but may have a minor
effect on system operation, are classified as “FADEC Fault” type faults. These are
designated in the Maintenance Message Code List.
(d) For the EMC-35R FADEC Systems, faults (MM codes) resulting in the Reversionary Governor
taking control will turn on the following three lamps: FADEC DEGRADED, FADEC FAULT
and RESTART FAULT..
(5) When the engine is shut down, the FADEC DEGRADED alert lamp becomes a “Maintenance
Advisory” lamp. It will turn ON for any indicated fault, regardless of type. Any of the Maintenance
Messages listed in the MM Code List will activate the lamp.
B. Status Messages (see Task 73-25-04-100 for EMC-35A software version V5100, Task 73-25-04-157
for EMC-35A software version V5202 and Task 73-25-04-158 for EMC35R)
(1) With the engine shut down, place the collective pitch lever in the full down position, the throttle in
the GROUND IDLE position, and the FADEC MODE switch (located on the lower right side of the
cockpit instrument panel) in the MAN position. This will enable the fault code display function for
“current” faults (if the throttle is placed in the CUTOFF position, the fault code display function will
be enabled for “last engine run” and “current” faults).
(2) Toggle the FADEC/ECU SW switch located on the left side of the lower pedestal in the cockpit.
The FADEC DEGRADED, FADEC FAULT, and RESTART FAULT lamps on the
CAUTION/WARNING PANEL will be turned OFF for approximately 2 seconds, then they will flash
simultaneously 5 times at a rate of 1 flash per second. This alerts maintenance personnel that
the fault code display process is ready to begin.
(3) To display the first message, toggle the FADEC/ECU SW switch. After a 2 second pause, one of
the three lamps will flash between 1 and 12 times to indicate a particular Status Message. Note
and record the lamp and the number of flashes it makes. The FADEC/ECU SW switch must be
toggled after each Status Message to display the next message (if there are any more). After a
particular lamp has completed its flashing sequence, or if there are no Status Messages to be
indicated by that lamp, it will be turned ON and remain illuminated for the duration of the message
display sequence.
(4) To display the first message to be indicated by the next lamp, if any, again toggle the
FADEC/ECU SW switch. Repeat this process until all three lamps are ON, and remain
illuminated. This indicates that there are no more Status Messages to be displayed.
(5) Toggle the FADEC/ECU SW switch once more. The FADEC DEGRADED, FADEC FAULT, and
RESTART FAULT lamps will be turned OFF for approximately 2 seconds, then they will flash
simultaneously 5 times at a rate of 1 flash per second. This alerts maintenance personnel that
the fault code display process is complete. If any of the lamps were previously lit to indicate an
Alert Message, they should now be ON once again.
NOTE: The Alert/Status Message List at the front of this manual can be used as a checklist.
(6) Place the throttle in the engine CUTOFF position. This will enable the fault code display function
for the “last engine run” and “current” faults. The Message display sequence is identical to that
described in subparagraphs (2) through (5).
(7) It is recommended that the Status Message display process be repeated to make sure that all
messages are properly noted and recorded. Repeat subparagraphs (1) through (6).
(8) If the conditions required to enable the Status Message display (as described in
subparagraph (1)) are not maintained, the display function will end. Also, if the FADEC MODE
switch is cycled, or the throttle is moved from IDLE to CUTOFF, or CUTOFF to IDLE, the display
function will end and then can be re-started by toggling the FADEC/ECU SW switch.
WARNING: THE EMC-35A/R FADEC FAULT DETECTION SYSTEM IS A LIMITED DIAGNOSTIC TOOL. IT
MONITORS CRITICAL INPUT AND OUTPUT SIGNALS OF THE FADEC SYSTEM AND
INTERNAL FUNCTIONS OF THE ECU. THE FAULT LOGIC DOES NOT MONITOR ALL
COMPONENTS OR FUNCTIONS OF THE FUEL CONTROL SYSTEM SINCE MANY TYPES OF
FAILURES ARE NOT ELECTRICALLY DETECTABLE.
WARNING: THE ABSENCE OF FAULT CODES OR DISPLAYS DOES NOT GUARANTEE FUEL CONTROL
SYSTEM INTEGRITY. ANY FUEL CONTROL SYSTEM PROBLEM OR ANOMALY MUST BE
FULLY INVESTIGATED BY MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL FOR CAUSE AND RESOLUTION
PRIOR TO ESTABLISHING AIRCRAFT FLIGHT READINESS. READINESS FOR FLIGHT
MUST NOT BE DETERMINED SOLELY ON THE ABSENCE OF FAULT CODES OR DISPLAYS.
CAUTION: USE OF THIS MANUAL FOR FADEC SYSTEM FAULT ISOLATION IN AN ENGINE TEST CELL
ENVIRONMENT IS NOT AUTHORIZED. DIFFERENCES BETWEEN TEST CELL
INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNALS AND THOSE FOUND IN THE ACTUAL AIRCRAFT INSTALLATION
MEANS THAT THE TEST PROCEDURES AND LIMITS MAY BE INCORRECT.
5. Fault Correction and Confirmation
A. Fault correction is not complete until the symptom(s) has been confirmed to be cured. Follow
recommended procedures in the Aircraft Maintenance Manual (BHT-407-MM) to verify engine and
aircraft performance and integrity after performing FADEC system maintenance.
B. Replacement of the ECU or the HMU for fault isolation purposes should only be attempted as a last
resort. If symptoms are not corrected by this method, reinstall the original HMU or ECU. If the new
components correct the fault, make certain to include complete symptom data together with
accumulated operating time on maintenance forms returned with the components.
WARNING: DIRECTION TO REPLACE AIRCRAFT OR ENGINE COMPONENTS WHICH ARE NOT
MANUFACTURED BY GOODRICH IS BASED ON THE LIMITED INFORMATION WHICH
CAN BE DETERMINED WITH SIMPLE VOLT-OHMMETER CHECKS. THE INTENT IS TO
ISOLATE A SUSPECTED PROBLEM AREA RATHER THAN MAKE A FINAL
DETERMINATION TO REJECT THESE COMPONENTS. APPLICABLE CHECKOUT
PROCEDURES FOR THESE COMPONENTS SPECIFIED BY THE AIRCRAFT OR ENGINE
MANUFACTURER SHOULD BE PERFORMED TO DETERMINE THE INTEGRITY OF
THESE COMPONENTS BEFORE RETURNING THEM TO THEIR MANUFACTURER.
C. For faults related to signals supplied from components external to the ECU or HMU, it is
recommended that these external components be functionally tested per manufacturer specified
procedures, if possible, before sending the items back to the manufacturer for repair. Note that fault
isolation procedures for the FADEC system may not detect all problems occurring in external signal
sources.
NOTE: Before replacing any component, be sure that a contaminated or corroded connector is not
the cause of the fault. If signs of contamination or corrosion exist, clean connectors with
contact cleaner and blow dry with compressed nitrogen (preferred) or filtered dry air.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
MM CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TASK ARE DECLARED AS A RESULT OF ECU CHECKS ON TWO REDUNDANT
SIGNALS FROM THE HMU PLA POTENTIOMETERS. THE SIGNALS ARE CHECKED AGAINST THE RANGE AND RATE-OF-
CHANGE LIMITS LISTED IN TASK 73-25-04-131. IF ONE SIGNAL FAILS THE RANGE OR RATE LIMITS, A SOFT FAULT IS
DECLARED AND THE OTHER SIGNAL IS UTILIZED. IF BOTH SIGNALS FAIL THE RANGE OR RATE LIMITS, AND THE
THROTTLE IS AT FLIGHT POSITION (PLA > 92O), THE PLA SIGNAL IS HELD AT THIS VALUE IN THE SOFTWARE (I.E.,
“FROZEN” ) UNTIL THE ENGINE IS SHUT DOWN, AT WHICH TIME A HARD FAULT IS DECLARED. FOR CONDITIONS

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TASK ARE DECLARED BY ECU CHECKS ON THE FUEL FLOW
CALCULATED FROM STEP COUNTS OF THE METERING VALVE STEPPER MOTOR. A FAULT IS DECLARED IF THIS
CALCULATED FUEL FLOW EXCEEDS THE RANGE LIMITS OF TASK 73-25-04-131. A FAULT IS ALSO DECLARED IF THIS
CALCULATED FUEL FLOW DIFFERS FROM THE METERING VALVE POTENTIOMETER FUEL FLOW SIGNAL BY MORE
THAN THE DIFFERENCE LIMIT OF TASK 73-25-04-131. THE STEP COUNT IS INITIALIZED TO THE METERING VALVE
POTENTIOMETER SIGNAL AT ECU POWER UP, OR UPON SWITCHING FROM THE MANUAL TO THE AUTO MODE. THE
STEP COUNT MAY EXCEED THE RANGE LIMIT IF IT WAS INITIALIZED TO AN INACCURATE, BUT NOT FAULTED,
METERING VALVE SIGNAL. THE STEP COUNT MAY DIFFER FROM THE POTENTIOMETER IF THE POTENTIOMETER IS
NOT CHANGING ACCORDING TO METERING VALVE POSITION COMMAND SIGNALS FROM THE ECU.
FOR THE EMC-35R SYSTEMS, ONLY THE PRIMARY GOVERNOR READS THE METERING VALVE POTENTIOMETER FUEL
FLOW SIGNAL AND PERFORMS A DIFFERENCE CHECK AGAINST THE STEP COUNT CALCULATED FUEL FLOW VALUE.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. AIRCRAFT BATTERY TURNED OFF AT SHUT DOWN BEFORE ENGINE STOPPED ROTATING
2. THROTTLE OPENED AT SHUT DOWN BEFORE ENGINE STOPPED ROTATING
3. ENGINE WAS NOT SHUT DOWN USING NORMAL SHUT DOWN PROCEDURES
4. NEWLY INSTALLED HMU WAS NOT MOTORED WITH THROTTLE IN CUTOFF POSITION

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TASK ARE DECLARED IF THE OVERSPEED TEST IS
ACTIVATED, BUT THE ECU DOES NOT MEASURE THE REQUIRED REDUCTION IN NG SPEED. IF THIS MM CODE IS
DECLARED, THE ECU WILL NOT PERFORM ITS NORMAL POST-OVERSPEED TEST FUNCTION OF AUTOMATICALLY
SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE BY OPENING (DE-ENERGIZING) THE HOT START ABORT SOLENOID VALVE.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. ECU FAILURE
NO
VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
RUN ENGINE TO GROUND IDLE AND PERFORM OVERSPEED SHUT DOWN TEST. REPEAT A SECOND TIME TO
EXERCISE ALTERNATE CHANNEL. VERIFY THAT THE “CURRENT” MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODE NO LONGER EXISTS.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TASK ARE DECLARED BY THE ECU AS A RESULT OF THE
ECU CHECKING THE NP SPEED SIGNAL AS READ BY THE ANALOG OVERSPEED SYSTEM CIRCUITS. THE ANALOG NP
SIGNALS ARE CONTINUALLY CHECKED TO AGREE WITH THE NP SIGNALS READ BY THE MICROPROCESSOR, WITHIN
THE DIFFERENCE LIMITS SPECIFIED IN TASK 73-25-04-131. ALSO, DURING THE PILOT-INITIATED OVERSPEED SHUT
DOWN TEST, A TEST SIGNAL IS SENT TO THE CHANNEL WHICH IS NOT CURRENTLY ACTIVATING THE OVERSPEED
SOLENOID VALVE TO DETERMINE ITS ACCURACY IN COMPARISON WITH THE OVERSPEED TRIP POINT. THIS TEST IS
ALTERNATED FOR THE OTHER CHANNEL EVERY OTHER TIME THE OVERSPEED TEST IS ACTIVATED. THE FAULT IS
DECLARED IF THE NP ANALOG SIGNAL ACCURACY IN COMPARISON TO EITHER THE MICROPROCESSOR SIGNALS OR
TO THE ANALOG CIRCUIT REFERENCE TRIP POINT IS OUT OF LIMITS.
FOR THE EMC-35A FADEC SYSTEMS, THE MM CODE “NPOSFLT” CAN BE CAUSED BY THE OPERATOR IF THE “OVSP
TEST” SWITCH IS PUSHED MORE THAN ONCE FOR A GIVEN OVERSPEED TEST SHUTDOWN. IF THIS FAULT IS
INDUCED THIS WAY, THE FADEC WILL TURN ON THE “FADEC FAULT” INDICATION DURING THE OVERPEED TEST
SHUTDOWN. THIS INDICATION IS TRIGGERED BY THE MM CODE “OSFLT” WHICH RESULTS FROM THE MM CODE
“NPOSFLT”,
FOR THE EMC-35R FADEC SYSTEMS, IF THE “OVSP TEST” SWITCH IS PUSHED MORE THAN ONCE FOR A GIVEN
OVERSPEED TEST, THE SECOND ACTIVATION OF THE SWITCH WILL RESET THE TEST SEQUENCE AND TURN OFF THE
OVERPEED SOLENOID. THE FADEC WILL CARRY ON WITH THE SHUTDOWN USING THE HOT START ABORT SOLENOID.
NO FAULT WILL BE LATCHED.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. FADEC SYSTEM HARD FAULT RESULTING IN INTENTIONALWATCHDOG TIMER TRIP (SOFTWARE VERSION V5100)

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
FOR ALL VERSIONS OF FADEC SOFTWARE, MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TASK ARE
DECLARED IF THE WATCHDOG TIMER DETECTS THAT THE SOFTWARE EXECUTION CYCLE WAS NOT PROPERLY
COMPLETED.
IN ADDITION TO THE ABOVE, THE EMC-35A FADEC SYSTEMS WITH V5100 SOFTWARE INTENTIONALLY TRIP THE
WATCHDOG TIMER EVERY TIME ANOTHER HARD FAULT OCCURS. THEREFORE, FOR V5100 SOFTWARE THIS MM
CODE IS NOT TO BE REGARDED AS A FAILURE OF THE SOFTWARE EXECUTION UNLESS A “CPUHardFlt” MM CODE IS
ANNUNCIATED AND NO OTHER HARD FAULT MM CODES ARE PRESENT EXCEPT FOR “WDTHardFlt”. OTHERWISE ONLY
THE OTHER HARD FAULT MM CODES SHOULD BE CORRECTED.
FOR THE EMC-35R ECU WITH SOFTWARE VERSION 5356, A WATCHDOG TIMEOUT FAULT ON THE REVERSIONARY
GOVERNOR (WDTTimeOutRG) MAY OCCASIONALLY BE DETECTED ERRONEOUSLY WHEN SWITCHING FROM MANUAL
MODE BACK TO AUTO MODE. IF THE FAULT IS DETECTED WHILE THE ENGINE IS RUNNING, IT WILL NOT BE
ANNUNCIATED VIA THE DEGRADE LAMP UNTIL THE ENGINE IS SHUTDOWN. THIS IS A NUISANCE FAULT INDICATION
WHICH DOES NOT AFFECT THE FADEC SYSTEM OPERATION. A NUISANCE FAULT CAN BE DISCERNED FROM AN
ACTUAL REVERSIONARY GOVERNOR WATCHDOG TIMER FAULT BY INSPECTING THE FAULT AREAS WITH THE
MAINTENANCE TERMINAL. THE PRESENCE OF ‘WDTTimeOutRG’ ONLY IN LAST ENGINE RUN FAULTS (NOT IN
CURRENT, ACCUMULATED, OR FAULT TIMESTAMPS) IS INDICATIVE OF A NUISANCE FAULT INDICATION. THE FAULT
CAN BE CLEARED FROM THE LAST ENGINE RUN FAULT AREA USING THE MAINTENANCE TERMINAL, OR WILL BE
CLEARED AUTOMATICALLY DURING THE NEXT ENGINE START.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODES ASSOCIATED WITH THIS TASK ARE DECLARED IF FUEL FLOW EXCEEDS A
CALCULATED MAXIMUM FLOW VERSUS CORRECTED NG LIMIT FOR APPROXIMATELY 2 TO 10 SECONDS. THE
PROBLEM MAY BE DUE TO A FAILURE OR CONTAMINATION IN THE HMU OR FUEL HANDLING COMPONENTS WHICH
REQUIRES THE METERING VALVE TO BE OPENED WIDER THAN NORMAL TO ACHIEVE THE NECESSARY FUEL FLOW.
ALSO, LARGE ERRORS IN THE T1 SIGNAL OR METERING VALVE POTENTIOMETER SIGNAL (BUT WHICH DO NOT
EXCEED THEIR RESPECTIVE FAULT RANGE LIMITS) MAY CAUSE A SUFFICIENTLY LARGE ERROR IN THE MAXIMUM
FUEL CALCULATION TO TRIP THESE MM CODES.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. LOOSE PINS OR SOCKETS IN CONNECTORS
2. POOR CRIMP CONNECTIONS IN HARNESSES
3. DETERIORATED WIRE INSULATION OR INTERMITTENT SHORTING

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
INTERMITTENT FAULTS ARE DIFFICULT TO ISOLATE BECAUSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAULT IS TYPICALLY NOT ACTIVE
WHEN NO FAULT IS CURRENTLY IN EXISTENCE. THE INTERMITTENT FAULT PROCEDURES ARE INTENDED TO
INCREASE THE PROBABILITY THAT THE CAUSE OF THE INTERMITTENT FAULT CAN BE ISOLATED AND FUTURE RE-
OCCURRENCE AVOIDED. PERFORMING THESE PROCEDURES DOES NOT GUARANTEE THAT THE CAUSE OF THE
INTERMITTENT FAULT HAS BEEN ISOLATED.
PRECAUTIONARY REPLACEMENT OF LRUs HAS BEEN RECOMMENDED WHERE THE RE-OCCURRENCE OF THE
INTERMITTENT FAULT COULD RESULT IN A HARD FAULT CONDITION. LRUs ARE IDENTIFIED FOR PRECAUTIONARY
REPLACEMENT BASED UPON THE IDENTIFICATION OF WHICH COMPONENTS COULD CONTRIBUTE TO THE
PARTICULAR FAULT, AND LISTED IN ORDER OF MOST PROBABLE CAUSE.
NOTE: GOODRICH INC IS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR COSTS INCURRED DUE TO PRECAUTIONARY LRU REPLACEMENT,
FOR WHICH NO FAULT IS SUBSEQUENTLY FOUND. GOODRICH INC RECOMMENDATION FOR PRECAUTIONARY LRU

VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
INTENTIONALLY INTRODUCE A SYSTEM FAULT BY DISCONNECTING CIT SENSOR. WITH ENGINE SHUT DOWN, SELECT
AUTO MODE AND TURN ON ECU POWER (1CB16). SWITCH TO MANUAL MODE. VERIFY THAT FLASHING LIGHT
DISPLAY OPERATES IN ACCORDANCE WITH FIM USE PARAGRAPH 3.B., AND THAT IT IDENTIFIES THE CORRECT MM
CODE CORRESPONDING TO THE CIT FAULT. RECONNECT CIT SENSOR AND CYCLE ECU POWER TO CLEAR FAULT.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
THE MOST COMMON REASON FOR THIS FUNCTION FAILING TO OPERATE IS DUE TO OPERATOR PROCEDURAL
ERROR. THE DISPLAY ENABLING CONDITIONS MUST BE ESTABLISHED AND MAINTAINED FOR THE DISPLAY TO
FUNCTION: MODE = MANUAL, THROTTLE < 40O, COLLECTIVE < 10% AND NG < 9.5%.
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE DISPLAY MAY NOT OPERATE BECAUSE ONE OF THE SIGNALS MEASURING THE REQUIRED
ENABLING CONDITIONS IS IN ERROR (FOR EXAMPLE A MIS-RIGGED COLLECTIVE PITCH POTENTIOMETER) SO THAT
THE ECU DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE ENABLING CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN MET BY THE OPERATOR. CHECKS OF
THESE SIGNALS ARE THEREFORE PART OF THIS FIM TASK.
NOTE: FOR EMC-35A FADEC SYSTEMS WITH SOFTWARE VERSION V5100, LATCHED PLA OR CP FAULTS WILL SET
DEFAULT VALUES FOR THESE SIGNALS WHICH DO NOT MEET THE DISPLAY ENABLING CONDITIONS,
THEREBY PREVENTING THE DISPLAY FROM OPERATING.
FOR EMC-35A FADEC SYSTEMS WITH SOFTWARE VERSION V5202 AND EMC-35R FADEC SYSTEMS, THE
DISPLAY WILL OPERATE EVEN IF PLA AND/OR CP FAULTS OCCUR.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:

VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
WITH ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND CONTROL IN AUTO MODE, TURN ON ECU POWER (1CB16). TEMPORARILY
DISCONNECT CIT SENSOR AND VERIFY THAT HARD FAULT IS PROPERLY ANNUNCIATED VIA CAUTION/WARNING
PANEL ALERT LAMPS. RECONNECT CIT SENSOR AND CYCLE ECU POWER TO CLEAR FAULT. RUN ENGINE AT 86% NP
AND THEN TURN OFF ECU POWER. VERIFY THAT THERE IS NO FAIL-FIXED CONDITION.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE ECU TO FAIL FIXED BUT NOT ANNUNCIATE A HARD FAULT TO THE COCKPIT IF THE
AIRFRAME 28VDC SUPPLY HAS A LOW-VOLTAGE CONDITION. THIS WOULD NORMALLY REQUIRE A DOUBLE FAILURE
(AIRFRAME 28VDC SUPPLY LOW AND THE PMA FAILED), OR OPERATION WITH ONE OF THE POWER SUPPLIES OFF
LINE (PMA IS OFF-LINE WITH NP BELOW 86%, AND AIRFRAME 28VDC IS OFF-LINE WITH 1CB16 OPEN) AND A FAILURE
OF THE ON-LINE POWER SUPPLY. ALSO, THERE ARE RARE FAILURE MODES OF THE ECU INTERNAL POWER SUPPLY
WHICH CAN HAVE SYMPTOMS SIMILAR TO THE EXTERNALLY SUPPLIED POWER LOW-VOLTAGE CONDITION. THIS
BACKGROUND INFORMATION APPLIES ONLY TO ECU PART NUMBERS EARLIER THAN 23068348.
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
1. PROPER PROCEDURE NOT FOLLOWED DURING OVERSPEED TEST ACTIVATION

VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
RUN ENGINE TO GROUND IDLE AND PERFORM OVERSPEED SHUT DOWN TEST. REPEAT A SECOND TIME TO CHECK
THE ALTERNATE OVERSPEED CIRCUIT CHANNEL. VERIFY THAT THE OVERSPEED TEST SHUTS DOWN THE ENGINE
AND THAT NO FAULTS OCCUR.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
MOST FAILURES OF THE OVERSPEED TEST ARE DETECTED BY THE ECU AND ANNUNCIATED TO THE COCKPIT ALERT
SYSTEM AS SOME TYPE OF SYSTEM FAULT. IF NO FAULTS EXIST AFTER THE TEST FAILS TO SHUT DOWN THE
ENGINE, IT IS LIKELY THAT THE OPERATOR MADE A PROCEDURAL ERROR. THE OPERATOR MUST ESTABLISH AND
MAINTAIN THE ENABLING CONDITIONS FOR THE TEST: THROTTLE < 40O, COLLECTIVE < 10%, 60% < NG < 66%, NP <
75%, FUEL FLOW > 65PPH, AND ENGINE IS NOT DECELERATING AT THE TIME OF THE TEST.
IT IS POSSIBLE THAT THE TEST MAY NOT OPERATE BECAUSE ONE OF THE SIGNALS MEASURING THE REQUIRED
ENABLING CONDITIONS IS IN ERROR (FOR EXAMPLE A MIS-RIGGED COLLECTIVE PITCH POTENTIOMETER) SO THAT
THE ECU DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THAT THE ENABLING CONDITIONS HAVE BEEN MET BY THE OPERATOR. CHECKS OF
THESE SIGNALS ARE THEREFORE PART OF THIS FIM TASK.
THE ‘WFACTUAL > 65 PPH’ CONDITION IDENTIFIED IN STEP 04 IS NOT APPLICABLE TO EMC-35R ECU WITH SOFTWARE

VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
CYCLE ECU POWER. PLACE THROTTLE IN CUTOFF FOR A MINIMUM OF 60 SECONDS AFTER POWER UP. MOVE
THROTTLE OUT OF CUTOFF ONLY WHEN READY TO START THE ENGINE, AND THEN ENGAGE THE STARTER
IMMEDIATELY AFTER MOVING THE THROTTLE OUT OF THE CUTOFF POSITION. VERIFY THAT THE STARTER LATCHES.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
STARTER FAILS TO LATCH AND THERE IS NO ENGINE LIGHTOFF
THE ECU IS DESIGNED TO ABORT AN AUTOMATIC ENGINE START ATTEMPT (STARTER NOT LATCHED, START FUEL
NOT ENABLED) IF MORE THAN 60 SECONDS HAS ELAPSED SINCE THE THROTTLE WAS MOVED OUT OF THE CUTOFF
POSITION. THIS TIMER FUNCTION IS DISABLED ONCE ENGINE LIGHTOFF OCCURS, THE TIMER FUNCTION IS
NORMALLY RESET BY MOVING THE THROTTLE BACK TO THE CUTOFF POSITION.
INITIAL PRODUCTION START CIRCUIT WIRING DESIGN OF THE BELL 407 HAS THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS:
1. IF MGT IS GREATER THAN 150C, THE 60-SECOND TIMER MAY NOT RESET WHEN THE THROTTLE IS RETURNED TO
CUTOFF UNLESS THE THROTTLE REMAINS IN CUTOFF FOR 60 SECONDS.
2. THE ECU DOES NOT RESET THE 60-SECOND TIMER WHEN THE START BUTTON IS PUSHED, THEREFORE A
MAXIMUM OF 60 SECONDS IS ALLOWED FROM MOVING THE THROTTLE OUT OF CUTOFF TO A DETECTED ENGINE
LIGHTOFF, RATHER THAN FROM STARTER ACTIVATION TO ENGINE LIGHTOFF.
3. FOR SOFTWARE VERSION V5100, THE STARTER MAY BRIEFLY LATCH IF IT IS ACTIVATED WITH THE THROTTLE IN
CUTOFF AND MGT IS GREATER THAN 150C (TO COOL THE ENGINE DOWN).
IF THE START CIRCUIT AIRFRAME WIRING MODIFICATION IS INCORPORATED, THE BELL 407 START SYSTEM WILL
HAVE THE FOLLOWING CHARACTERISTICS:
1. THE START TIMER WILL RESET WHEN THE THROTTLE IS MOVED TO THE CUTOFF POSITION, REGARDLESS OF
THE MGT VALUE.
2. THE TIMER WILL ALLOW 60 SECONDS TO PUSH THE STARTER BUTTON FROM THE TIME THE THROTTLE IS
MOVED OUT OF THE CUTOFF POSITION. WHEN THE STARTER BUTTON IS PUSHED, THE TIMER WILL BE RESET,
THEREBY ALLOWING THE STARTER TO RUN FOR 60 SECONDS OR UNTIL ENGINE LIGHTOFF, WHICHEVER
OCCURS FIRST.
3. THE STARTER WILL NOT LATCH WITH THE THROTTLE IN CUTOFF, EXCEPT FOR A START-ABORT ENGINE COOL
DOWN.

VERIFICATION INSTRUCTIONS:
TURN ON C/WP ELECTRICAL POWER (4CB1). WITH ENGINE SHUT DOWN AND THROTTLE IN CUTOFF, CYCLE FADEC
POWER (1CB16). THE ENGINE OVSPD LAMP SHOULD ILLUMINATE FOR 3 SECONDS, AND THEN SHOULD EXTINGUISH
FOR 3 SECONDS. FOR EMC-35R FADEC SYSTEMS, THESE LAMPS SHOULD ILLUMINATE A SECOND TIME FOR 3
SECONDS AS THE REVERSIONARY GOVERNOR PERFORMS ITS SELF TESTS. PERFORM OVERSPEED SHUT DOWN
TEST. THE ENGINE OVSPD LAMP SHOULD MOMENTARILY ILLUMINATE FOR (APPROXIMATELY 1 SECOND) DURING
THE TEST AND THEN SHOULD EXTINGUISH.
START ENGINE AND RUN TO 100% NP. VERIFY THAT THE “ENGINE OVSPD” COCKPIT INDICATOR LAMP STAYS OFF
WHEN THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. VERIFY THAT NO “CURRENT” NP MAINTENANCE MESSAGE CODES EXIST.
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
THE BHT MAINTENANCE MANUAL ENGINE OVSPD ANNUNCIATOR CIRCUIT FUNCTIONAL TEST CHECKS THE
ANNUNCIATOR CIRCUIT FROM THE 1A50P2 CONNECTOR AT THE ECU TO THE COCKPIT DISPLAY.
THE ECU TURNS ON THE “ENGINE OVSPD” COCKPIT INDICATOR LAMP UNDER THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS:
1. IF ELECTRICAL POWER IS APPLIED WITH ENGINE OFF, AS PART OF ITS POWER-UP TESTS THE ECU TURNS
ON ALL THE ENGINE LAMPS ON-OFF FOR 3 SECONDS TWICE (ONCE DRIVEN BY PG AND ONCE DRIVEN BY
RG).
2. IF THE OVERSPEED INDEPENDENT CIRCUITRY ENERGIZES THE OVERSPEED SOLENOID DUE TO AN ACTUAL
OVERSPEED (NP>118.5%) OR DUE TO AN OVERSPEED SYSTEM TEST ON SHUTDOWN.
3. IF NP > 107.3% AT ANYTIME OR
4. IF NP > 102.1% FOR 2.5 SECONDS.
FOR ECU’S WITH SOFTWARE VERSION V5358, THE “ENGINE OVSPD” COCKPIT INDICATOR LAMP WILL ALSO BE

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
THE ECU CONTAINS A BUILT-IN ENGINE HISTORY RECORDING FEATURE WHICH RECORDS ENGINE EVENTS WHEN
ENGINE OPERATING CONDITIONS EXCEED LIMITS OF CONCERN TO THE ENGINE MANUFACTURER. THEREFORE
THESE MM CODES ARE NOT ENGINE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILURES. THESE MM CODES ALERT THE OPERATOR TO
CHECK THE ENGINE HISTORY DATA, REPEATED BELOW, FOR EXCEEDANCE INFORMATION TO DETERMINE IF
MAINTENANCE ACTIONS ARE REQUIRED FOR THE ENGINE TURBOMACHINERY COMPONENTS. SOME MM CODES AND
THEIR ENGINE HISTORY DATA ARE ONLY VIEWABLE BY THE ENGINE AND ECU ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT
MANUFACTURERS (OEM). REFER TO TABLE ON NEXT PAGE FOR LIST OF ENGINE HISTORY PARAMETERS AND
ASSOCIATED MM CODES RECORDED BY THE ECU. NOTE THAT THE LAST FOUR PARAMETERS IN THE TABLE
(NpLmEvts, NpRLmEvts, NpMLmEvts, and NpExcInd) ARE NOT APPLICABLE TO EMC-35R PRIMARY SOFTWARE VERSION

BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
FOR THE EMC-35R FADEC SYSTEMS, BOTH THE PRIMARY AND REVERSIONARY CHANNELS PERFORM FAULT
DETECTIONS ON SHARED INPUTS/OUTPUTS. FOR THE REVERSIONARY FAULTS IDENTIFIED IN TABLE 1, AN
EQUIVALENT PRIMARY GOVERNOR FAULT IS EXPECTED.
IF NO EQUIVALENT FAULT HAS BEEN LOGGED IN THE PRIMARY, THE MOST PROBABLE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE IS AN
INTERNAL ECU FAILURE.
FOR SOFTWARE VERSION 5356, IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE ECU TO DETECT AN ‘StSIFltRG’ FAULT IF OPERATING IN
MANUAL MODE WITH INPUT POWER TO THE ECU LESS THAN 24VDC. THE MOST LIKELY SCENARIO FOR THIS FAULT
TO OCCUR IS A MANUAL MODE START OR WET MOTOR AND THE BATTERY VOLTAGE DROOPED DUE TO STARTER
ACTIVATION.
IF THE A REVERSIONARY GOVERNOR FAULT HAS AN EQUIVALENT FAULT ON THE PRIMARY GOVERNOR, THE FIM
TASK IDENTIFIED FOR THE PRIMARY FAULT IN SECTION MML SHOULD BE FOLLOWED TO ISOLATE THE FAILURE.
