Level 3 FADEC failure is indicated on the EICAS page with a FADEC1/FADEC2 FAIL caution along with illumination of which light?

• A. Red Engine Status Light
• B. Amber Caution Light
• C. Green OK Light
• D. White Light

Answer: (A)

When the FADEC notes a level 3 failure, the system flags a major engine control fault on EICAS with a FADEC1/FADEC2 FAIL caution. To ensure immediate recognition, the cockpit also illuminates the Red Engine Status Light. The red color is used for urgent engine-related faults, signaling the crew to take prompt, appropriate action. Amber cautions, green OK, or white indicators are used for less urgent warnings, normal status, or other non-fault conditions, respectively. So the red engine status light accompanying the FADEC failure cue is the correct visual alert for this serious fault.
