747 no switches working

Featured Replies

Hi I loaded up the 747 this morning and found that I had no interaction in the cockpit.Is there a way of repairing the aircraft or do I need to do a re-install.I noticed that when the plane is loading I am not getting the usual loading info on the top of the screen.The 737 and 777 are working ok.I am running p3d v4.4 and win10.

Any help would be really appreciated

Regards M.Hamilton

Hi Thank you for replying.I have rebooted my system and restarted the sim,I am still having the same problem.I can click on any of the display screens and they will open in 2d,I can open and close the battery switch cover but the switch itself will not work.None of my joystick control actions will  work{fsuipc} ie flaps,speedbrake.FlexNet is running.

That's all I can think of, unfortunately. You'll need to submit a support ticket at support.precisionmanuals.com. If you've never done this before, you'll need to create a new account since it's separate from the store account.

Load a default startup panel.  I usually use cold and dark in these situations.

Thanx for the info.The aircraft loads in c&d and I cannot turn on the mcdu.I don't know what caused this as it was running perfectly.I can turn on the auto throttle switch, FD switch, autopilot switch etc.I can see the altitude knob turning but the digits do not move.I have loaded the default scenario and then loaded the 747/747-8,I have also loaded straight in with both variants and it makes no difference.As I say both the 737 and 777 work flawlessy.I did a fresh install of the747/747-8 let it update and it still made no difference.Will open a ticket with PMDG.

Thanx again for your help

Thank you for your replies.The problem was with the activation,somehow it got corrupted.I deleted the files in the flexnet folder,and on restarting sim I was asked to activate,which I did and now all is good.

How did you do this?  I am having the same issues but there is nothing in the FlexNet folder that I am looking at.  Also it's not asking for the authentication code on start.

Thanks! Brent Kolar
