## Discrepancy

APU WILL NOT CRANK. GROUNDED - YES.  REMOVED AND REPLACED BOTH AIRCRAFT BATTERIES REF AMM 24-31-11.  APU STILL WILL NOT START ON JUST BATTERY POWER.  APU STARTS ONLY ON GROUND POWER.

ADJUSTED SWITCH, REF AMM 49-15-11.  ACCOMPLISHED TWO SUCCESSFUL APU BATTERY STARTS, REF AMM 49-11-00.
