Hi slakr007

I followed what you did, and here is how mine differs from yours:

(* = OK, X = discrepancy from checklist, @ = doesn't make sense to me)

* BATTERY switch - Guard closed
@ DC Meters - on BAT, positive indication on DC Amps
* AC Meters - on APU, Flat
* GALLEY POWER switch - ON
* STANDBY POWER switch - Guard closed
* STANDBY PWR OFF light IS ON
* BUS TRANSFER switch - Guard closed
* TRANSFER BUS OFF light IS ON
* BUS OFF light IS ON
* APU - Start
* APU GENERATOR switches - ON
* BUS OFF lights - extinguished
* TRANSFER BUS OFF lights - extinguished
* LOW OIL QUANTITY light - extinguished
* APU LOW OIL PRESSURE light - extinguished
* APU HIGH OIL TEMPERATURE light - extinguished
* APU OVERSPEED light - extinguished
* AC Meters - on APU, power indicated.
@ DC Meters - on BAT, negative indication shown on DC Amps.
* DC Meters - on STDBY PWR, indications correct.
* AC Meters - on STDBY PWR, indications correct.
* STDBY PWR OFF light - extinguished at this point.

From here, I did the following (I know, it deviates from the checklist)...

WINDOW HEAT - All ON
PITOT STATIC HEAT - Both ON
ENGINE HYDRAULIC PUMPS - OFF
ELECTRIC HYDRAULIC PUMPS - ON
APU BLEED AIR - ON
ENGINE BLEED AIR - Both ON
Left AC PACK - ON
Right AC PACK - ON

NAV1 is already tuned to the SEA VOR.

Here is an image showing that the lights are ON:


I was able to start the engines 20 minutes later. As I said. With those three items above actually being as they should be, I'm not surprised I am able to start the engines.

I wonder why it is that they are correct for me, but not for you. :-/

Note. The two that don't make sense to you, don't make sense to me either. ;)
