Problem with latest update (fuel indicator)

Post by hjmx »

I have completely re-installed my system: Win10 ((1607), P3Dv3.4.9 (academic). I re-downloaded A2A C172 (for P3D academic) from a2a shop and installed it. Everything is fine. Cockpit fuel indicator properly shows fuel content.

As soon as I update (v 05-09-16), which I need for Flight1 GTN 750, the fuel indicator always show zero fuel (no matter what fuel is on board).

This is reproducible on my system. I uninstalled a2a C172 completely, inclusive deleting every a2a related folder. then I reinstalled, updated, .... same problem occurs.

Any ideas and suggestions appreciated.

Check the circuit breakers to make sure all are pushed in. Also how do you fill fuel in the tanks?

Hello Harry - Welcome to the forums. :)

One of the features enabled by the update is functional circuit breakers in the Cessna 172. Therefore it's probably worth clicking the breaker labelled "INST" (directly above the beacon light switch) just in case it's tripped.

Cheers,
Nick
