Lauramks2 Posted June 1 Report Share Posted June 1 This has happened to me twice now. I have been watching videos on running the flight compartment checklist. In the checklist I performed the bleed air tests and the switches worked fine. After a break and running the engine start checklist, these two valves no longer work. I thought maybe a CB popped but all are in. If I look at the synoptic, nothing moves when I press the switch buttons. I have good AC and DC power. My only recourse is to start with a new cold dark aircraft. I don't think this is a systems issue but more of a glitch in the aircraft. Anyone experience this?

Can you record and publish your own video of the issue by chance? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauramks2 Posted June 28 Author Report Share Posted June 28 This has happened to me as well. Yesterday I was pushing the bleed air buttons and accidently pushed the left tenth stage valve. It was indicating closed but when I pushed it all the valves started working again and I was back to normal. I am guessing it is a glitch. This valve issue seems to happen if I leave the sim for awhile when I am in the middle of the checklist. I saw reference to them locking out during an overheat situation and thought if I turned off the APU for awhile it would fix itself but that was not the solution.

Lauramks2 Posted June 29 Author Report Share Posted June 29 I will if I can duplicate the issue. Like so many maintenance issues, it has to break again before we can fix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mammux Posted August 19 Report Share Posted August 19 Same thing happened to me. The sim was paused overnight, and now I am unable to start the right engine. The right valve in the 10th stage never opens, even when I press the start button. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
