Ya that’s odd…I’ll have to look into it…It seems it’s ever since I installed the Logitech radio panel that this has been happening.

Thanks 

If you continue to have issues, you could always try one of the freeware alternatives here and here. Haven't tried them myself yet, but I'm tempted.

I’ll have to take a look at these, might be a better option than afcbridge.

Cheers!

I’ve been using AFCbridge also, are you having to run the exe file every time you use msfs? I’m asking cause not sure it’s normal but I have to run that exe file every time I load up msfs, I have to wait until I’m in the main msfs screen before running it though, which seems odd…not a big deal but just curious.

I have to do this as well, it seems to be a very frequent bug, I wish Honeycomb/aerosoft would get it to work correctly.

For those who have the issue of the lights suddenly ceasing to work, here is a post I put up awhile back on their site regarding the cause and how to resolve this without screwing up other addons: https://flyhoneycomb.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/360060191572/comments/4411273750925

The .exe file is an installer, not meant to be run every time you use the sim.  If you run the .exe file it should find your Community folder install the driver automatically, and the ONLY result in your Community file should be "AFC_Bridge" with respect to the Bravo lighting working.  This is loaded automatically when the sim is started up, and my LED lights and AP panel lights have been working properly since last December without any further intervention.

No disrespect intended, but they've had the AFC_Bridge software to activate the LED's since day one, available from the Honeywell or Aerosoft websites.  Been using it without incident since before Christmas 2020. NOTE: Just run the .exe file and it will find your Community folder and install the AFC_Bridge file.  DO NOT put the .exe file in your Community folder directly.

Oh no that's OK. I know they had a download from day one but that was just to get the lights working on the Quad. But They did have a new download this time. Not sure what it did but I downloaded it and installed it. I did find out what my problem was though. It was from profiles I created for the different planes. So I'm back up and running. But I do want to say Thank You for trying to help me. It is greatly appreciated. Walt

Newbie here...I downloaded the drivers--it automatically installed the .exe in my community folder.  In any event whether  it's here or in another folder no lights.   And the AFC_Bridge shows in my content manager as "uninstalled" with no options to install from within the program...thoughts?

Yes, my AFC-bridge also shows as uninstalled in my content manager also. But It is working as I have lights on my Throttle Quadrant. Not sure why this is but If I get an answer I surely will post it for you.

Use the Bravo app from the flightsim.to site.

works every time and always being updated.

Which one are you using? There are currently two, as I posted the links to at the top of this page.

Went to to the Honeycomb site and it downloads the Aerosoft drivers...

Ah, ok. That's the second one from flightsim.to I linked to above. Useful to know which 3rd party mod people are having success with.

I couldn't get it to work. Didn't cause any issues but just didn't work. I ran the install.bat file but saw no effect. I looked and the AFC Bridge folder was still in Community. With no error messages I was unable to do any troubleshooting. I'll stay with AFC Bridge for now.
