Introduction
The FADEC is able to ensure functional operation in case of single component failure. In the
event of several failures, it will assume a failsafe strategy to preserve engine operational
capability.
The FADEC system is designed with a dual redundant architecture. It consists of the EECs
with CCDL, dual * control sensors, dual * control harnesses, dual * coil, single hydro-
mechanical parts, ADC, DPC (2). (*) For critical data.
The FADEC system includes 2 redundant & independent EEC channels able to control the
engine. Each EEC channel determines its health status to compare it (via CCDL) to the other
one, in order to select the healthier as the active one.
Both EEC units have same electrical connectors and interfaces. The A/C electrical interfaces
are connected via J1, J2 and J4. The engine electrical interfaces are connected via J3, J5, J6
and J8. Ground support interface is connected via J9.
Harnesses W4A & W2 (Channel A) and W4B & W2 (Channel B) interface EECs and A/C
electrical systems. W100, W200 & W300 ensure interfaces between A/C and Engine systems.
Engine electrical interfaces with the EEC units are connectors J3, J5, J6, J7, and J8 via
harnesses HJ3A, HJ5A, HJ6A & HJ8A to channel A, and harnesses HJ3B, HJ5B, HJ6B &
HJ8B to channel B. Harness HJ7 is for the CCDL.
The EEC units integrate BITE and ground test functions for the detection of internal unit
hardware failures: initialization and periodic tests. On ground with engine shutdown, ground
tests and special functions can be carried out.
Inputs from systems are checked, selected & used in the control law. Channels A & B work in
same way. The processed data are then sent to engine or A/C systems via the output stage.
The FADEC system operates on an “active-stand-by” strategy, where only one of the two
EEC channels has complete control at any one time. The active channel has full authority
over all EEC outputs used for engine control.
EEC Ch A & B are either in active or stand-by state, the healthier is the active one & has
priority. The STB Ch disconnects its torque motor & solenoid outpouts thanks to 3 disconnect
functions. Faults are sent via ARINC 429 bus.
The MDS uses engine parameters from the EEC to figure related values on MDS screens.
Displayed indication aspect depends on their values, limits...The 737 MAX features a center
display panel (with 4 MFD), a fwd & aft overhead panels.
The MDS EI format is located on the left INBD DU. It displays engine data. There are two
configurations for display of Engine Indication: the Primary and the Secondary display.
Overhead Panels
The overhead panel is divided into two main panel sections: forward P5 overhead panel and
aft P5 overhead panel. P5 overhead panel provides controls and indications for engine
systems.
Aft P5 overhead panel povides the following engine indications: ALTN, ENGINE CONTROL,
REVERSER AIR/GRD,REVERSER COMMAND,REVERSER LIMITED, ENG VALVE
CLOSED, FILTER BY PASS, ENG ANTI-ICE & MAINT.
The N1 figures the engine physical fan speed (in %N1), it is displayed by means of a pointer
on a round dial with a numerical readout enclosed within a box. The maximum N1 depends
on the current ambient conditions.
N1
N1 redline is the maximum certified engine operating limit (104.3%) for the engine fan speed,
it is displayed as a red radial tick mark on the outside of the dial. T/R in-transit and T/R
deployed are also displayed on the N1 dial.
N2 Indication
N2 provides indication about the engine core speed (in %) and is displayed on the engine
indication display. N2 indication is set with limits and limit exceedances (redline: 117.5%).
Starting indication is MOTORING.
EGT Indication
Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) is displayed on the Engine Indication (EI) display (in °C).
This indication reflects the general health of both engines. EGT indication is set with limits
and limit exceedances (amber and redlines).
Exhaust Gas Temperature (EGT) limits during the starting are: EGT start redline, EGT starting
limit exceedance and ENG FAIL alert. When EGT exceeds the ‘EEC start EGT limit' during a
ground start, the EEC performs specific actions.
Oil Pressure
The engine oil pressure is displayed on the engine indication display through a scaled column
and a numerical readout (in psid). Oil pressure indication is displayed with limits (amber &
redline) and exceedance (amber line & redline).
Oil Temperature
The engine oil temperature is displayed, through a numerical readout (in °C) and a scaled
column, on the engine indication display. Oil temperature indication is displayed with limits
(amber & redline) and exceedance (amber line & redline).
Oil Quantity
The engine oil quantity is displayed (% of oil tank) on the engine indication display. If the oil
quantity falls below low limit, MDS informs the crew by inverting colors of digital readout and
outline box. Moreover, it displays a “LO” quantity alert.
Fuel Flow
The FF indication is displayed on the engine indication display in lb/h or kg/h, as a numerical-
only illustration. FU value which comes from the DPC can be displayed on the engine
indication display instead of the FF value.
Vibrations
The engine vibration level, expressed in Cockpit Units (CU), is displayed on the engine
indication display. The Engine Vibration Monitoring (EVM) logic within the EEC processes
four independent vibration measurements of N1 & N2.
Fuel control overhead panel displays engine alerts and indications concerning fuel via
dedicated lights: “ENG VALVE CLOSED” light and "FILTER BYPASS" light.
The DPC provides engine crew alerting messages in black colored text within an amber
colored box on the engine indication display. It provides important alerts as FUEL FLOW,
THRUST, LOW OIL PRESSURE, OIL FILTER BYPASS & START VALVE OPEN.
A/I overhead panel displays engine alerts and indications concerning A/I system by using
dedicated lights. “ENG ANTI-ICE” light indicates when the EEC detects the blocking of engine
booster A/I valve in closed position while in flight.
The OMF collects fault reports from A/C LRUs & provides maintenance MSGs about A/C
systems. The OMF initiates & terminates menu mode operations for the EECs & queries them
for shop fault & engine configuration data.
The A/C maintenance system provides usefull engine health information.The maintenance
system is designed with DPCs, EECs & ONS.The DPC allows communication between these
elements via ARINC 429.
The ONS system consists of a maintenance/BITE panel (on P61-4 area). It enables to
navigate through the OMF menu (on MFD), to perform ground tests and to upload A/C data
on a PMD via an RJ45 ethernet connection.
Thanks to the monitoring of various sources & tests, the EEC system detects failures & over-
limits. The fault-reporting function is simultaneously performedby both EEC channels.
The OMF can be used either by means of the MFDs or PMD. Both ways feature identical
displays & some operations. The PMD has additional selection for "in- depth" maintenance on
the ONS. The PMD just needs the proper software.
System status messages are set when a condition exists that does not require flight crew
action but require maintenance review. In case of system status fault indication, an amber
“MAINT” light is illuminated on aft overhead panel.
The "STATUS MESSAGES" page can be reach from the "SYSTEM" page via the "MAINT"
key & "TOP LEVEL MAINTENANCE" menu. This page informs about airworthiness status of
the faults.The "MAINT" light is ON in case of status MSG.
The MAS provides airworthiness information about A/C systems. The "MAINT" light indicates
(except in flight) any fault impacting the airworthiness. The DPC collects airworthiness faults
from EEC & various A/C systems.
There are 10 systems which feature (1 or more) maintenance pages. These pages are
available on the ground & above 10 000 feet.The information are shown either in real time or
via snapshots in case of event.
Maintenance data pages are available in modes (identified by the title): real time, manual
event, auto event. Real time mode has a field for date and UTC time. A page shows: gross
weight, temperatures, speed, altitudes, eng vib, eng & oil data.
EPCS provides maintenance data via 4 pages: # 1 & 2 for engine sensor data from EECs, # 3
for vibration related data, # 4 for digital discrete data from EECs. Snapshots of these pages
can be recorded either manually or automatically.
“ENGINE EXCEEDANCE” pages provide informations (date and time, concerned parameter
and profile data) when a limit exceedance occurs. The concerned parameters are N1, N2,
EGT and EGT start.
The "MAINT CTRL PGS" tab allows to access: ACD, MSC, Latched message erase, & Maint
light pages. Through these pages, one can: manage various maintenance data & A/C
systems, set some systems into maintenance modes...
Categories of Dispatch
Message Format
The message number identifies the fault and is used as reference to find the relevant
troubleshooting procedure in the Fault Isolation Manual (FIM).
Reports
Reports are generated by the A/C OMF. A PMD can be connected to the A/C, it allows
access to the OMF menus and additional applications available for in-depth maintenance
actions.
EEC maintenance power switch allows to power EEC for maintenance operations. It is
controlled via a virtual switch on the “MAINT CTRL PGS” of the Multi-Function Display (MFD).
The purpose of the "ground test enable switch" is to provide an additional layer of protection
and security for maintenance functions such as menu mode, data load, and engine trim
balance.
Ground tests are provided to verify EEC-detected faults by performing functional checks of
various engine control system functions. Maintenance personnel uses the OMF to initiate and
run the tests.
The ground test page allows to select the test. The four parts for each ground test performed
are: Selection of ATA and required test, pre-condition page, test, and post condition page.
The system test screen consists of: test initiation, test in progress, test pass and test fail. The
post conditions screen provides information to return the aircraft into service.
Ground Test 1 of 2
Ground tests can be run with the Onboard Maintenance Function (OMF). Performed tests are:
actuator test, wet motor test, T/R interlock test, and harness test.
Ground Test 2 of 2
Ground tests can be run with the Onboard Maintenance Function (OMF). Performed tests are:
engine idle test, EEC test, ignition channel A test, ignition channel B test, and EEC blower
test.
Special functions are used to configure the engine for other maintenance operations such as
water wash. They can also be used to access to Engine Serial Number entry or to reset the
Debris Monitoring System.
Special functions allow the selection of sub-systems (by ATA chapter) with their associated
system operations. They provide a means to verify inputs and control the subsystems into the
test system.
The special function condition failed screen displays all the faults recorded during the test.
The post condition screen provides information to return A/C into service.
The function screen offers the possibility to start, monitor or stop the current operation. A pop-
up window displays instructions on how to proceed for the current special functions operation.
The ESN entry function allows to change Engine Serial Number. This task must be done at
each EEC replacement since it stores this data. The ESN function communicates with EEC
channels A & B in order to have a dual record.
Special Functions 2 of 3
The special functions enable to perform either: fuel system preservation (igniters OFF), water
wash (igniters OFF), erase all faults (EEC Ch A & B), DMS reset (EEC CH B only).
Special Functions 3 of 3
The following special functions are also available: thrust reverser cycle, fan accelerometer
selection, hydraulic offload, engine running simulation, lamp check.
Troubleshooting General
Unscheduled maintenance must be performed when flight faults, ground faults, service
problems or structural damage occurs. In order to perform this kind of maintenance, specific
and approved technical documentation must be used.
Select “ONBD MAINT” in the system menu to access to the onboard maintenance function
(OMF) menus. There are three primary menus: line maintenance, extended maintenance, and
other functions.
Troubleshooting-IFIM Introduction
