MD11 Start Air Pressue Lo

Featured Replies

When I do the checklist and get ready to start the engines there is an error message that says start air pressure is lo. I am using the APU with NI and N2 at 100 percent and EXT power disconnected. Any help would be appreciated.ThanksDon

You need to select one of the two starters, and make sure you have the APU BLEED set to ON.

Your APU bleed is probably off, check the APU button on the air panel.

The APU maybe is not connected to the air system via the APU BLEED switch.Check also that the air system is in auto mode, because if is not, the packs are not autmatically turned off and suck a lot of air pressure to work. (the 3 PACKS need to be off for engine start)Cheers,
