The engine does not start C172

Post by sulzer »

Hello
I am using the prepar3dv3 with the cessna C172 from a2asimulation.
It has all worked suddenly, the engine has failed.
I have rebooted but the engine does not start.
The ignition locks but the engine does not start
What could be the problem ?
Please help me

regards
Martin

Have you:
Done the pre flight walkaround?
-This will tell you if you have fuel and oil.

Checked the maintenance hangar?
-this will help you verify that there are no mechanical issues

Have you tried using CTRL-E if everything above looks okay?

Do not try a reinstall yet as that can compare troubleshooting.

Thank you for your answer

I did not make a pre-flight check.

How can I do that?

Ctrl + E can not start the engine.

Can I fly without the checks?

I just want to fly (navigate for my PPL training)

The manual is installed with the simulation and can be found in the start menu in the A2A folder.

Very important to read up on the quick start section at the minimum as the standard functions for fueling and loading the aircraft are overridden by A2A.

You should also download and apply the patches from the sticky topic above in the forums.

Shift -8 walk around
Shift-7 maintenance hangar
Shift-4 loading

Lots more to learn in the manual.

Here is the Accu-sim updater;

A read through the manual will help you and with the pilots, simmers, instructors here on the forums you can find lots of help for how to get the best out of the professional level Accu-sim simulation to aid and help you in your training.
