Show Slide 2 (Troubleshooting Procedures)


Troubleshooting is a logical, systematic search for the source of a problem so that it can be solved, and the
product made operational again.
Troubleshooting is needed to develop and maintain complex equipment like the FBCB2-BFT systems where
the symptoms of a problem can have many possible causes.
Common Check Procedures:
NOTE: These are the generic initial steps to take when troubleshooting the FBCB2-BFT system.
(a)

Try to duplicate or verify the problem reported.

(b)

Inspect the defective unit and associated cables for obvious damage.

(c)

Isolate the problem to a failed LRU.

(d)

If the problem is not obvious, refer to the Troubleshooting Procedures Index and continue

troubleshooting the system.

Troubleshooting symbols:
(1) The Table, Troubleshooting Flowchart Symbols in the TM explains the function of the symbols that are
used in troubleshooting flowcharts.
Platform Check Procedures:
(1) Platform check procedures are general in nature. The procedures apply to all platforms.
(2) An excellent indication of proper operation is the Power-On-Self-Test (POST). If no problems are
indicated after an initial self-test, refer to the operators initial complaint. If the original complaint is resolved,
the unit should be operational. The Operators Manual (TM 11-7010-326-10) describes specific testing
procedures in detail.
Functional Check Procedures:
NOTE: Functional checks are performed as the last step of troubleshooting and after repairs
(removal/installation) of components to verify the FBCB2-BFT system is operational, or after periods of nonuse. Examples of periods of non-use include after the system is shipped overseas, extended down time at
home station, or upon initial issue of the system.
(1) Power up and initialize all interface equipment.

(2) Set PU circuit breaker/switch to the ON position.


(3) Power up AN/UYK-128(V)3 computer by pressing PWR button on DU for up to 4 seconds, then release.
