FLAPS - TROUBLESHOOTING

100100100

Troubleshooting the flap system is used to determine if trouble exists in the position indicating system, flap asymmetry detector system, flap hydraulic system or electrical circuit. Effective troubleshooting is accomplished by rationalization. The troubleshooting procedures in this section are furnished as a guide. Listed below are three charts provided for troubleshooting the flap system. Chart 1 - Flap System (Electrical) Troubleshooting Chart 2 - Flap System (Mechanical) Troubleshooting Chart 3 - The Roll-off Squawk Data Sheet is provided as an aid for the technician. The data sheet is designed to gather pertinent information from the flight crew during debriefing, and as an aid for flight testing. The technician is encouraged to copy this data sheet and utilize it whenever possible.

Chart 3 Roll-Off Squawk Data Sheet Description of problem: (What speed, altitude, and flight configuration [course, approach, climb, descent, etc.] did the problem occur. Did adding power or decreasing power change the characteristics? What were the trim settings at the time of the problem?) ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________

Verification Flight Test: Please collect the following data at the listed flight configurations below. *If roll-off occurs with flap extension do Checks 1 and 2. *If roll-off occurs with speed brake deployment, no flight check is required.

Check 1: Speed 165 KIAS, 15,000 ft. MSL with auto-pilot off, manually trim the airplane for straight and level flight. Do not reset roll trim for remainder of flight test (Check 1).

Record roll trim______________________ RH______LH______ Record rudder trim___________________ RH______LH______ Open the roll trim circuit breaker.

Select 10 flaps. Release the controls and fly for 10 seconds. Record bank angle after 10 seconds _____ RH______LH______ Return to straight and level flight (roll trim circuit breaker open). Select 20 flaps.

FLIGHT TEST COMPLETE Re-trim Pitch and Yaw as required and return to base.

Ground inspection after flight checks: After the airplane has returned from flying either Check 1 or 2, the mechanic is to measure and record the setting of the roll trim tab and rudder trim tab at the control surface as well as record the cockpit roll and rudder trim settings.
