3.12.1.12 Repeating Increase and Decrease of Manifold-Air-Pressure MAP
and RPM
A periodic increase and decrease of MAP and RPM is most likely caused by
oscillations of the manifold-air-pressure-control (while the
yellow TCU-caution-
light is not flashing)
. The following procedure is recommended:
1.
TCU-isolation-switch
Switch to ACTIVATED position
(the switch is UP) to isolate
waste-gate-actuator
2.
after max. 5 seconds
TCU-isolation-switch to
DEACTIVATED position (the
switch is DOWN) to re-activate
waste-gate-actuator
If the system is not operating normally:
3.
TCU-isolation-switch
to ACTIVATED position (the
switch is UP) to isolate the
waste-gate-actuator
permanently
4.
Manifold-air-pressure is not controlled automatically anymore. Control
MAP (red MAP-warning-light must remain OFF) with the throttle.
Recommended operating limits:
≤
75% MCP
(MAP :
≤
31 inHg, engine speed
≤
5000 RPM)
Caution:
If the waste-gate-actuator is switched OFF (TCU-isolation-
switch is ACTIVATED), lower engine-power has to be
expected. The manifold-air-pressure-control is only possible
with the throttle.
Caution:
A exceeding of the allowed engine-limits and/or deactivation
of the waste-gate-actuator must be documented by the pilot
in the A/C-logbook with details like: nature of incident, date,
duration and the degree of exceeding.
