Blue Hydraulic Pump Inop?

[bnash00]

It appears the blue hydraulic pump is inoperative in MSFS 2024. Has anyone else run into this? No matter what I try. I cannot get the blue system to pressurize.

Yes I've found the same issue.

confirmed.

However I believe that hydraulic pumps are like Meatloaf.  Two Out of Three Ain't Bad

Hi,

Thanks for your reports. Unfortunately I'm not seeing this on our end. This may be related to an improperly streamed package? Please try both of the following:

Thanks!

I'm having the exact same issue.  I tried to force a re-download of the streamed packages and to clear the WASM folder, as suggested above, and this did not resolve my issue.  I actually went back to MSFS 2020 to see if I was doing something wrong, and the Blue system pressurized without issue in the prior simulator.  If you could provide alternative suggestions to resolve this issue that would great, as I'd love to take the A310 out for a spin in MSFS 2024 with all systems functional! Thanks, IniBuilds--you guys are the best, and I'm sure there will be a quick resolution to this issue.

Best,

Jon

Hi @Sweetkayakbro

I've tried to reproduce again and there's no issue on our end. I hate to ask this, but would you mind trying the force re-download method one last time on the off chance it failed to stream packages twice? Let me know how that goes. Unfortunately not much else we can offer here. Apologies for the inconvenience!

 Thank you

A force-redownload has cured this problem for me

[Sweetkayakbro]

Second time was the charm for me--thank you guys for the quick reply and troubleshooting help!

[g-kats]

This has come back again for me.

[g-kats]

...and gone again. It's definitely intermittent.

[Sweetkayakbro]

Same--it keeps repeating.

I've tried both methods above multiple times (clear download/WASM), different liveries, start-up states etc.
 

Blue hydraulics simply don't work. Either via the PTU or engine driven pump I can reproduce it *every* time I try and load the aircraft.
 

I don't subscribe that it's simply 'non-reproduceable' by the devs. As evident by the same issues in the MSFS2024 forums - it's not a 'one-off' issue for some users.

Is there any work-arounds ini can recommend? Different panel state or something i'm doing wrong?

Same here. No Blue Hydraulic when starting a flight at the ramp, in cold and dark state, or on GPU.

It seems to work when starting a flight directly on runway with engines already running.

[Burnie_King]

I have the same issue, I believe it can be replicated by starting manually from dark and cold.

If you start the sim with the aircraft ready in take off config on the runway, then the issue isn't there... However, initially it DOES appear on the ECAM but clears itself almost instantly.

[g-kats]

I believe this is more prevalent if you start engine 1 first.

[richboy2307]

Hi,

We've tried again on 2 separate systems, spawn cold and dark on gate at LPFR Gate 323. 10 subsequent starts (5 with Engine #1 on first, 5 with Engine #2 on first). We made sure to force a re-download of the packages as well to ensure its streamed fresh between sim restarts.

Unfortunately, the issue was still not reproducible in this test. We recommend affected users to try to re-download the package, or reach out to MS Support (MSFS Forums or Zendesk) for further support in case that does not resolve the issue for you.

Thanks!
