The problem persists for me.
The “Press Ess” light remains constantly illuminated, whether on the ground or in flight.
After a while, the motor shuts down, seemingly without any other issue.
It’s impossible to complete a flight with this aircraft.
My game is up-to-date on Steam, I have an RTX 5080, and I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling the game, but the problem remains.

Hi could reproduce it, the PRESS ESS (fuel pressure) goes only off if the engines RPM are above 2750-2800 rpm and goes on again below 2700, way too high, as the max rpm for the DR400 should be at 2600 rpm, as indicated on the gauge.

Same here…

The PRESS ESS indicator light seems to be fixed with Sim Update 6 Beta - 1.8.5.0

13

Yes, seems to be fixed in SU6 Beta.

Agree, SU 6 beta the issue is finally fixed.
