[SOLVED] Only my Com/Nav 2 and GPS seem to be working.

I was doing a random flight, while starting i noticed parts of the instrument panel wouldn't work.
During climb they didn't come to live too, i already restarted FSX and my PC.



Anybody knows what's causing this and how to fix it? I don't think i'm supposed to fly with only one radio operating
I don't even know if the transponder works.

Did i miss something? Is there a switch i forgot to flip?

What is the position of the NAV/GPS switch? (to be found in the lower left part of the panel, adjacent to the A/P Master switch...) If this switch is set to GPS then the RBI NAV1 is used for GPS tracking. It will show all OFF flags unless a GPS routing (normal route or DCT TO) is inserted.

Edit: sorry, I didn't note that the whole NAVCOM1 unit is powerless. This clearly indicates a power failure -> fuse popped out

I don't remember using the autopilot but I'll take a look, thanks for the response

Moving the switch doesn't seem to help anything

I cannot see very clearly in a dark screenshot & I'm "4-eyed", but is that 5 amp breaker NAVCOMM "popped out", second from the far right.

I don't think it is, but i am now reinstalling the aircraft and hope it comes back to life again.

Reinstallation finished, re-run the update and it all seems to be working now again

Yes, indeed, you are right. The fuse cap is definitely in the "out" position! Hovering the mouse ober the cap would have shown its state. No reason to re-install the whole A/C. A bit of troubleshooting is always the better solution... Don't forget, it's a A2A AccuSim model. Things like that CAN happen...

Lol, It's not easy reinstalling FSX, for me it will take a week with all my add-ons.... that's why I kept on visiting this site everyday to look for fix of the problem before doing something silly.. just by reading all the support topics I learned a lot.

Hahaha for me apparently the same, but i always choose reinstalling FSX as last, i just re-run the Cherokee installer, which takes about 5 minutes
When i'm finally done reinstalling FSX i'll be old enough to get my own airplane
