(Figure 201)
NOTE: This procedure is a scheduled maintenance task.
A. General
(1) The IDG air/oil cooler is an oil-to-air heat exchanger that uses bypass fan air to cool the IDG
cooling oil system.
(2) The IDG air/oil cooler is found inside the fan case and to the left of the 6 o'clock strut.
(3) For this task, the IDG air/oil cooler will be referred to as the cooler.
(4) Mild debris in the cooler fins can trap water and contaminants that will promote corrosion. This
is especially true in the winter months and during storage. Some runway deicers will attract
water to the surface of parts and result in accelerated corrosion.
(5) Other inspection methods may be used depending on airline policy.
