Five questions before chasing a hydraulic component

A short reasoning checklist for separating source, hydraulic, indication and consumer evidence.

737 MAX2 minall_levels

Ask first

  1. Which hydraulic system owns the affected function?
  2. Which pressure source is expected in this condition?
  3. Do indication and actual system behavior agree?
  4. Could flow be lost to internal demand/leakage even if pressure exists?
  5. What current approved test will separate the remaining branches?

This is a reasoning checklist, not a maintenance procedure.

KEEP IN MIND
  • System → source → indication → flow/demand → approved isolation
