APU start - SOP 1 (6min Mark)

[youngie63 4]

Hi guys, l have an issue with SOP 1 voice where the PM asks if l want the APU started at the +6 minute mark. I answer yes. PM goes through the motions of starting the APU (APU switch full on and left fwd fuel on). Sadly that’s where it stops. ‘Low oil pressure’ light remains on followed by a ‘fault’ light - no rise in EGT. I intervene by reselecting the APU switch to full on where the warning lights diminish and EGT rises and all goes back to normal.

Any ideas why this is happening?

cheers Steve

Happens every time?  We're moving the APU switch via the PMDG SDK...

Yes mate, have completed numerous flights with the same result. Thought it may have been v1.3 but same issue with v1.4
