870 Weather Radar
If a failure is detected during TEST mode, a corresponding fault code
is generated. Fault codes are displayed as part of the FAIL annunciator
i.e., F AIL “N”, where “N” is the fault code. (Refer to Table C--3.)
NOTES: 1. Some weather failures are annunciated on the
EFIS/MFD with WX.
2. Some EFIS/MFD installations power up with WX
displayed if the weather radar is turned off.
