SR22 PUMP BKUP defaults ON - DARK Cockpit

[UppishWind75631]

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Contrary to MFS2020, MSFS2024 SR22 PUMP BKUP defaults to ON upon entering cockpit in dark mode. This issue was not present in earlier versions of MSFS2024. Not sure why it was changed from OFF to ON…?

Again not a major issue, just strange that things appear/change for no apparent reason as the sim evolves.

FREQUENCY OF ISSUE

Every time sim loads.

Can replicate.

This is not a backup fuel pump, it is the TKS fluid pump for de-icing. That being said, it as well as the Oxygen System should be in the off position normally.

Hi, thanks for the comment. I did not imply it was a backup fuel pump, in any case this switch is inop/not programmed although the animation works (ON/OFF), see pic.

Concur with you that both O2 and PUMP BKUP should be OFF.

Cheers.

Confirmed in SU5, both the backup pump and oxygen switches default on when loaded cold and dark.
