  • SWPM 20-00-00 — Standard Wiring Practices

3. Removal

  1. Open and tag the C21 circuit breaker on the overhead panel.
  2. Disconnect electrical connector DP-441 from the sensor. Fit protective caps to the connector and receptacle.
  3. Loosen the two retaining bolts and remove the sensor from its mounting bracket.
    • Discard the O-ring seal.
!
CautionDo not let the connector hang by its wiring. Support the harness to prevent damage to the pins.

4. Installation

  1. Fit a new O-ring seal (P/N 7X-21-4402-07) to the replacement sensor.
  2. Position the sensor on the bracket and hand-start both retaining bolts.
  3. Torque the retaining bolts to 3.4 N·m in an alternating sequence.
  4. Remove the protective caps and reconnect connector DP-441 until it clicks home.
  5. Remove the tag and close the C21 circuit breaker.

5. Close-up test

Perform a cabin pressure control operational test per AMM 21-31-00. Confirm the sensor reading tracks the reference within tolerance before returning the aircraft to service.
