Thrust Reverser (T - R) Cycling Test (Menu Mode)
WARNING: BE CAREFUL WHEN YOU DO WORK ON THE ENGINE PARTS AFTER ENGINE SHUTDOWN. USE APPL
ICABLE THERMAL GLOVES. THE ENGINE PARTS AND THE ENGINE OIL CAN STAY HOT FOR ONE HO
UR AFTER SHUTDOWN AND CAN BURN YOU.
NOTE: It takes the physical thrust reverser system approximately 1.5 seconds to deploy fully from stowed,
or to stow from fully deployed.

SUBTASK 73-29-00-865-076-A
B. Make sure that this (these) circuit breaker(s) is (are) closed:
(a) Make sure that the ENG MASTER switch 1(2) is set to OFF.
(b) Make sure that the ENG/MODE rotary selector-switch is set to NORM.
(2) On the ENG section of maintenance panel 50VU:
(a) Release the FADEC GND PWR1(2) pushbutton switch. The ON legend of this pushbutto
n switch comes on.
NOTE: After the Full Authority Digital Engine Control (FADEC) is energized, wait ten
seconds before you start the test. If you do not wait ten seconds, the interac
tive mode stops the Engine Electronic Controller (EEC) self-test and this can
cause spurious faults.
(3) On the overhead panel, on FLT CTL panel 23VU and 24VU, make sure that the SEC1, SEC2 and
SEC3 pushbutton switches are pushed (on the pushbutton switches, the OFF legends are off).
(4) Do the EIS start procedure Ref. AMM TASK 31-60-00-860-001.
(5) On the left or right Multipurpose Control & Display Unit (MCDU), get the SYSTEM REPORT/TES
T/ENG page Ref. AMM TASK 31-32-00-860-012.

CAUTION: BEFORE YOU START THE TEST, MAKE SURE THAT THE THRUST REVERSER COWLS ARE FU
LLY CLOSED. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS INSTRUCTION, EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE AIRC
RAFT WILL OCCUR.
CAUTION: STOW THE THRUST REVERSER A MAXIMUM OF 40 SECONDS AFTER YOU FULLY DEPLOY I
T. IF YOU DO NOT OBEY THIS TIME LIMIT, THE TEST WILL ABORT AND IT WILL BE NECESSA
RY TO STOW THE THRUST REVERSER MANUALLY.

NOTE: The EEC will not enter the menu mode (interactive mode) after an enquire command from t
he Centralized Fault Display System (CFDS) when any of the following conditions are set:
- N2 more than ten percent or invalid
- Engine not off
- Engine not in default start state
- Throttle Lever Angle (TLA) not at idle or invalid
- Aircraft in the air
- MASTER lever ON or invalid
