NOTE:
If you turn the knob to a position farther than the correct position, the value
increases.
(w) Make sure the TANK CAP PF thumbwheels are set to a value within the acceptable range.
Depending on aircraft model, the capacitance must be 39.0 pF +/- 1.2 pF or 40.2 pF with a
tolerance of +/-1.2 pF as determined from AMM.
(5) Return aircraft to normal configuration.
(a) Disconnect and remove FQIS test unit.
(b) Disconnect test harness from airplane wire bundle.
(c) Connect the electrical connector to the rear of the DCTU.
(d) Connect fuel quantity indicator to DCTU and reinstall in pilots’ panel (Fig. 501).
(e) Disconnect and remove TSU jumper harness from airplane wire bundle and tank harness.
(f) Reconnect the TSU J1 and J2 connector plugs.
(g) At P6 Main Power Distribution Panel, close these circuit breakers and remove DO-NOT-
CLOSE tags:

2) EP GND FUELING
4. System Calibration
Perform the following steps as required.
A. Preparation for the system test.
1. Provide electrical power (Ref. AMM Chapter 24).
2. Extend leading edge flaps (Ref. AMM Chapter 27).
WARNING: YOU MUST CAREFULLY DO THE STEPS BELOW TO INSTALL THE LE FLAP SAFETY LOCKS.
THE LE FLAPS CAN MOVE QUICKLY IF YOU DO NOT INSTALL THE SAFETY LOCKS
CORRECTLY. THIS CAN CAUSE INJURY TO PERSONS OR DAMAGE TO THE EQUIPMENT.
3. Install safety locks on the leading edge flaps (Ref. AMM Chapter 27).
4. Defuel/drain all tanks to be calibrated and associated sumps so that the compensators and tank units
will not be immersed in fuel (Ref. AMM Chapter 28).
5. If aircraft is equipped with capacitance trimmers for the FQIS system (located above the hand mike jack
on the pilot’s side of the center console), they should be adjusted to minimum capacitance as follows:
Remove the trimmer’s plastic cover by unthreading it to reveal the adjustment screw. Back the trimmer
screw CCW until flush with internally threaded tube, turn clockwise one or two turns until resistance to
rotation is felt. Reinstall the trimmer’s plastic cover.
