Hi just recently re-installed my 737 NGX packages. When I start the acft with the engines shut off and start the APU, after it adjusts it will not let me power the acft when flipping the power switch to APU power. I also tried adding a start cart and selecting ground power, but still nothing. I also do not get any bleed air to start engines...Is there something I'm not selecting? It was working perfectly before the reinstall. Thanks!

 

Just curious if you've read the introduction manual and tried performing tutorials #1 and #2? With that information in hand you should have no trouble with those issues. Tutorial #1 does start with the engines running to get you started quickly but tutorial #1 starts completely cold and dark and takes you through aircraft power up procedures. I HIGHLY recommend doing those.

Hi Dave:

 

Yes I have. I have actually been flying the 737 NGX for a couple of years without any issues. For one of my VA's, we use VAFS which forces you to start engines off, so the procedure I have been using with complete success for a long time is the same one I still use- its just stopped working correctly for some reason. I start up the APU, which performs correctly, and when the light comes on to switch electrical power to the bus to run on APU, the light goes out but no power to the acft systems. I also do not get any bleed air. I have also tried the external start cart and air carts, selected external power but its not working...maybe a re-install might fix it...

Another issue I have since the re-install is that every time I load the 737, even a previously loaded exact model, it prompts me for the online activation every time. Another reason I'm thinking something went wrong with the install...

Ok, I think I got if working finally. Had to reinstall the addon pack for the 600-700...
