Narrative:
We were pushing back from the gate in a maximum 8 and were starting the number 2 engine. The first officer (first officer) configured the air conditioning panel before the tick on the egt was gone; causing the eec (electronic engine controller) to abort the engine start. Once we saw the white box flashing; we aborted the engine start; reviewed the qrc; and followed the QRH guidance. After confirming with maintenance (and a review of the [operation manual]) a second successful start was made.we conducted a briefing about the maximum engine start and the items that we were going to see; and time limits associated during our normal preflight briefings. I was very surprised when the aborted start happened due to the fact that we had reviewed the start process. I will continue to brief the engine start procedures with a bigger emphasis on the egt roll back.

Title: B737 MAX-8 crew reported failing to follow the engine start procedure resulting in an aborted engine start.
Narrative: We were pushing back from the gate in a MAX 8 and were starting the number 2 engine. The FO (First Officer) configured the air conditioning panel before the tick on the EGT was gone; causing the EEC (Electronic Engine Controller) to abort the engine start. Once we saw the white box flashing; we aborted the engine start; reviewed the QRC; and followed the QRH guidance. After confirming with Maintenance (and a review of the [operation manual]) a second successful start was made.We conducted a briefing about the MAX engine start and the items that we were going to see; and time limits associated during our normal preflight briefings. I was very surprised when the aborted start happened due to the fact that we had reviewed the start process. I will continue to brief the engine start procedures with a bigger emphasis on the EGT roll back.
