The PTU is inhibited during and immediately after cargo door operation.

Normally the PTU will run briefly during the second engine start after the engine masters are both "On" and the hyd differential still exists. The aircraft looks specifically for this operation, and considers it a 'test.'

Start the 2nd engine while the PTU is still inhibited due to cargo door operation, the test never happens, the aircraft is unhappy and the fault is generated.
