Gulfstream G300 Customer Bulletin No. 244 March 12, 2018

Landing Gear (ATA 32), Replacement – Nose Wheel Steering Servo Valve Manifold Assembly
I. Planning Information:
A. Effectivity:
Aircraft serial numbers 1000 through 1535 B. Reason:
Un-commanded nose wheel steering events on Gulfstream IV aircraft have been caused by moisture intrusion into the nose wheel steering servo valve manifold assembly.
Gulfstream issued Customer Bulletin (CB) 219, Landing Gear (ATA 32), Modification – Nose Wheel Steering Servo Valve Upgrade, dated October 5, 2011, to address a known design issue by replacing existing servo valve manifold assemblies with upgraded units having hermetically sealed servo valves.
Further investigation has identified supplier assembly procedures which may have introduced foreign objects and/or caused seal damage, contributing to the moisture intrusion problem. Improved steering servo valve manifold assemblies, P/N 5100-11 and 5105-5, incorporate the servo valve design change implemented by CB 219 with enhanced assembly procedures and quality control measures to ensure the designed level of sealing is achieved. This customer bulletin removes all existing steering servo valve manifold units and replaces them with improved assemblies.
This customer bulletin supersedes CB 219. Op erators having previously complied with CB 219 or CB 219A must comply with this customer bulletin to install improved nose wheel steering servo valve manifold assemblies.
C. Safety Intent:
The safety intent of this customer bulletin is to prevent moisture intrusion into the nose wheel steering servo valve. Moisture intrusion that freezes in the nose wheel steering servo valve may cause uncommanded deflection of the nose wheel during touchdown, resulting in an unsafe condition and potential runway departure.
D. Configuration Description:
There is no change to the aircraft configuration.
E. Description:
This customer bulletin is a one-time action to replace the existing nose wheel steering servo valve manifold assemblies with improved units, P/N 5100-11 or 5105-5.
F. Compliance:
Compliance with this customer bulletin is r equired within 48 months from the original issue date of March 12, 2018.
Due to a limited number of spares being available at any one time, compliance with this customer bulletin is a managed program and must be coordinated with the Program Office at pmoretro@gulfstream.com or through Gulfstream Scheduling at 800-810-GULF (4853), or 912-965-4178. If not scheduled, down times could increase significantly.

II. Accomplishment Instructions:
WARNING: FAILURE TO INSTALL ALL LANDING GEAR AND LANDING GEAR DOOR
SAFETY DEVICES BEFORE WORKING IN ANY WHEEL WELL MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.
FAILURE TO DISSIPATE HYDRAULIC PRESSURE BEFORE INSTALLING OR
REMOVING ALL LANDING GEAR AND LANDING GEAR DOOR SAFETY
DEVICES SHALL CAUSE DAMAGE TO AIRCRAFT OR MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH.
CAUTION: PROTECT WIRE BUNDLES, CONNECTORS AND SURROUNDING
STRUCTURE DURING ANY MAINTENANCE PROCEDURE FROM SHAVINGS, DEBRIS AND CONTAMINATION. MAINTAIN A PROPERLY CLEANED WORK
AREA THROUGHOUT THE PROCEDURE TO ENSURE THE INTEGRITY OF THE AFFECTED COMPONENT / SYSTEM. VISUALLY INSPECT WORK AREA
USING ADDITIONAL LIGHT AS NECESSA RY TO VERIFY ABSENCE OF ANY DEBRIS PRIOR TO COMPLETION OF PROCEDURE. FAILURE TO COMPLY MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE TO COMPONENTS AND / OR SYSTEMS.
NOTE: Some steps in the accomplishment instructions are identified as Required for Compliance (RC). If this CB is mandated by an airworthiness directive (AD), the steps identified as RC must be done to comply with the AD. Steps not identified with RC are recommended and may be deviated from, done as part of other actions, or done with accepted methods different from those given in the CB, if the RC steps can be done and the aircraft can be returned to a serviceable condition.
A. Open nose landing gear doors. Refer to AMM, Ground Service Provisions, Landing Gear Doors – Operation, Chapter 32.
B. Prepare the aircraft for safe maintenance as follows:
1. Remove electrical power, turn all cockpit switches off and disconnect battery quick disconnects.
C. Gain access to the Nose Wheel Steering (NWS) servo valve manifold assembly. See Figure 1.
NOTE: The NWS servo valve manifold assembly is located on the left side of the nose wheel well at Fuselage Station (FS) 109, Water Line (WL) 58.
D. RC: Remove the NWS servo valve manifold assembly. Refer to AMM, Nose Wheel Steering Servo Valve Manifold Assembly – Removal / Installation, Chapter 32.
NOTE: Remove and retain the hydraulic line reducers from the NWS servo valve manifold assembly and install new O-rings. Reducers must be installed on the replacement NWS servo valve manifold assembly in order to install the hydraulic lines.
E. RC: Install replacement NWS servo valve manifold assembly. See Step I.I. Material, for correct servo valve PN. Refer to AMM, Nose Wheel Steering Servo Valve Manifold Assembly – Removal / Installation, Chapter 32.
F. Ensure work area is clean and clear of foreign objects (FOD).
G. Record compliance with this customer bulletin in the aircraft’s permanent maintenance records and return aircraft to flight status.
