A340 Hung starts on each engine

Featured Replies

Hey everyone, I saw a previous thread on hung starts which was solved by the maintenance page in the EFB but that is not working in my case.

I am getting a hung start on each engine everytime I get in the A340.

- All fuel pumps on, APU bleed ON, APU bleed pressure at engines 36psi, throttles idle, no hardware bindings for fuel control or engine starters.

The engines will start eventually but each one is hung and takes about 2 minutes each to become available.

Starting procedure at the time was 1 engine at a time 1>2>3>4.

Hardware connected is: WINCTRL  MCDU, WINCTRL ECAM, WINCTRL Throttle w/flaps/Speed Brake, Mini Cockpit MiniFCU, WINCTRL Ursa Minor Side Stick and BlackBird Controls Airbus tiller. 

I cant see any hardware interfering but I dont know what else it can be. I've flown the ini A340 many times before and never ran into this. I had to recover my PC recently and after reinstalling everything, now I get hung starts every single time.

Wahhhh... still have issues. Tried to fly the ini A320neo v2 and get the same issue with hung starts. Since my original post I had even restored my whole PC and re-installed everything and I still get this issue.
