Grr Prune lost my reply.

I’ll go again quickly.

Could be starter staying in starter mode and not automatically switching to generator mode. Can potentially remedy by switching the ignition off momentarily, depending on type. If that fixes it consult MEL. If not, shut down.

Turbine engines expensive tho - if in doubt shutting it down is safe option.
