    I have the just flight MSFS Piper Warrior.

    Cannot get the Carb Heat to move, it just stays in the upward off position.

    I cannot get the Primer to move out it just stays in.
    When I put the mouse over it does the normal forward backward of the whole cockpit, even if I double click the primer.

    Where can I find the manual for this?

    How do I fix this?

      @syscd7000 There is a known issue with some of the switches not working on initial load. Just Flight is aware of it, I think they are fixing it for the upcoming update, though they haven't mentioned it directly. The workaround is to Restart the flight, and then the switches should work, at least the Carb heat.

        @syscd7000 The mouse click point for the Mixture lever blocks access to the Carb Heat lever... Try moving the pilot view to the right a little by pressing [Right Arrow] before attempting to click on the Carb Heat lever.

        The Primer is in the locked position by default... Try using the mouse scroll wheel to unlock it first before clicking on it.

          @katchaplin I have downloaded again and re-installed the plane, still the same problem. I cannot get the primer to unlock no matter what I try.

          If I am lucky the carb heat switch will work but this is only if I am lucky
          because in most cases it doesn't, even If I assign a key and use that instead of dragging down with the left mouse.

          Every effort I do I makes sure the swich is highlighted blue so the program knows what I am pointing to. I use the arrow keys to get to where I need to.
          As you say it must be a bug!

            You're using the new Lock cockpit interaction system; you need to go into options and change it to Legacy.

              @syscd7000 did you Escape and Restart? not re-install.

                @jmarkows All been sorted now - this was the reason as you have stated. I just needed to make that change from lock to legacy. Thanks
