Thank you! I'll try that first thing tomorrow. And no I'm not troubleshooting anything I just want the doors closed so I can start my CLT multi engine training. Not that you are suggesting a flight. I was advised NOT to try a take-off with the doors open, increase in drag, in case I loose the front engine (with the hydraulic pump). As for why the hand pump isn't working, NOT sure, I hear the solenoid click when I turn on the master switch. But every time I try to close the doors with the hand pump the pump pressurizes the system and acts like it's trying to open the doors instead of closing them?? Then afterwards if I switch the gear lever, from full down to neutral down the pressure is released and I hear a loud clunk somewhere near the front doors. Thanks again for the advice.
