## Discrepancy

DURING PILOT'S PREFLIGHT, WITH APU RUNNING, THE 'RUDDER LIMIT FAIL' RED CAS MESSAGE ANNUNCIATED.  ANOTHER AIRCRAT WAS UTILIZED FOR THE TRIP.  THE RUDDER LIMITER FAILED TO ACTUATE DUE TO A FAULT IN THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS OF THE SYSTEM.  AIRCRAFT WAS DE-POWERED AND RESET.  NO FAULTS WERE NOTED WHEN POWERED UP A SECOND TIME.  NO ACTIVE FAULTS WERE NOTED IN IMT.  AIRCRAFT WAS RELEASED FOR SERVICE.  (M)
