APU isnt starting! (Read 15576 times)

	I had the same problem with the Autopilot reading 0 for KIAS and altitude Mark. Once I had the electrical system set and running, including the APU, I could change the A/P settings.

	Ive got battery on, and Stby power to Auto. All my Generator switches are on, but when I try to start my APu, the RPM will spool up to 100% for a few seconds, before spooling right back down to zero. I have noticed that I cannot extinguish the light on the APU Gen Control Switch. It always reads off, no matter what. Ideas? Ive searched for help with no success.

	Try reloading the aircraft.

	Also try loading the Cold and Dark 757 save file and see if you have the same issue.

	I recently upgraded to the latest version and guess what? Once again something doesn't work. This time it's the APU. Nothing can get this started. I read this thread and none of the suggestions worked. And this is after I had to run through the whole load this version before this version when updating. What is that about!? I would have thought the most recent version would have fixed that as well. Captain Sim tauts this aircraft as a study level but it seems to be constantly plagued with issues. It worked fine (for the most part) prior to the latest update. Why the APU is not working is beyond me. This is a nice plane when it works but given this latest issue it may very well end up collecting dust as I will go back to the QualityWings 757. If there is a fix for this I would appreciate knowing what it is. And if there isn't then let us know that too.

	By the way, I did try starting with the external power on, external air on and all combinations of the two with no success. Honestly, the APU should start from a cold cockpit with battery: EP and EA shouldn't be needed for an APU start.
