I took the B1900D out today,after quite a while not flying it, and I'm having a couple of problems with it.

First is that the throttle levers keep jumping up to 100% constantly. I already checked if any left-over controller assignments could be the problem, but everything checks out, I reinstalled, but no change...

What could be causing this and what can I do to fix it?

 

Another little problem is that the annunciators for the Test A and Test B dont light up. I had this when I just bought this aircraft and it differed per install if they would work or not, but I thought that this was fixed in SP1. However, with SP1 installed, the problem is back. Any ideas on how to fix this would be welcome.

 

And a quick question. Has this aircraft always been such a VAS-hog? I cant remember having such problems with VAS with this aircraft, as I'm having right now. If there are any tips for VAS improvement, I'd be glad to hear about it.

Sometimes it can be that (even in aircraft without autothrottles, like this one), the [autothrottle=1] can be set in the aircraft.cfg and the aircraft can sometimes be loaded with the autothrottle incorrectly set on ...........but.....I just checked the aircraft.cfg and the autothrottle is set to   =0  in this aircraft, so it's not that.

 

Try pressing the "F1" key whenever the throttles shoot to 100%, this 'hard' resets the throttles to idle.     If that doesn't work, and they still shoot to 100% it does definitely sound axis related.   Perhaps a "ghost" assignment  - have you recently 'unplugged' a joystick or throttle controller?     If you don't delete the assignments first, sometimes they remain as ghost axes, that can cause issues like this.

Thanks Craig, I'll have a look at it.
