Section III. TROUBLESHOOTING
GENERAL
The troubleshooting table lists common malfunctions found while operating or
servicing the M113A2 FOV and its components. The troubleshooting table is
divided into sections. Each section covers malfunctions common to the different
systems of the carrier (e.g., engine, track and suspension, etc.).
The troubleshooting table has three divisions: malfunction, test or inspection, and
corrective action. The malfunctions are numbered in sequence through the
troubleshooting table. The malfunction is what will bring you to the troubleshooting
table.
Test or inspection is a step you take to isolate the malfunction. Each test or
inspection has a corrective action. You should perform the test or inspection and
corrective action in the order listed.
Troubleshooting tables for the M577A2, M106A2, M1064, and M125A2 are listed
in the symptom index as Command Post (M577A2, M1068) or Mortar Carrier
(M106A2, M1064, and M125A2).
The manual cannot list all possible malfunctions, nor all tests or inspections and
corrective actions. It is essential that you record all faults on form DA 2404 and
report it to unit maintenance. If a malfunction is not listed, or is not corrected by the
listed corrective action, notify unit maintenance.
The troubleshooting symptom index is below. Note that the malfunctions are listed
in alphabetical order.
