Hey everyone!
So I'm having this issue with the Cherokee. I run through the start up checklist but I can't get the engine to crank and start turning the prop. I see smoke come from the engine, but when I go into the maintenance hanger I don't get any faults. I replaced the starter and that didn't make a difference. I reset the aircraft to a new state and still didn't fix the problem. I applied and that didn't work either. My logbook does not appear to be corrupt and everything appears to be running normally. I can use auto start to start the aircraft but I'm at a loss as to why I can't start the engine manually. Anyone who can provide some help on this will be greatly appreciated.
Can't crank the engine!

Check the starter circuit breaker

Oh tell me about it! You would think I would've at least checked the circuit breakers before trying to figure out if it was the programming. But at least now it's working! I won't forget to check it those anymore now.
