King air nav mode doesn't work?

[OogaBooga]

I can't seem to get the King Air to follow a flight plan. Flight plan is visible on the screen and the waypoint info is displayed, but when I hit the nav button, nothing happens. The aircraft makes no attempt to turn toward the waypoint and nothing indicating that nav mode is active is displayed, like the button is inop.. Is this just something that's broken, or am I missing a step?

Can you please take a screenshot looking at the panel and post it here?

KING AIR 350 follows all FMS & VOR so long as you have enough air speed firstly (get it past 200kts else it will stall if set to climb from Take Off on FLC too early). Set YD=ON, Set Altitude e.g. 6000ft, Set FLC or VS+Climb Rate 10 degrees, Set NAV=ON, lastly Set AP=ON. Just be sure that the FMS is selected but is already as default and a Course has been programmed either by World Map or Manually.
The GS Green Diamond for ILS has stopped working for me but it still picks up the LOC to track the GS around 6nm on Finals.

If you mean the KING AIR C90 then that has warnings to NOT buy it on Forums already.

Thanks for the suggestions. Ok tried it again. YD on, FD on, Altitude set, VS set, Course loaded into FMS by default and NAV set to on. Takeoff, gear up, flaps up, trim for climb. Engage AP. aircraft begins climbing at the set VS, but does not turn toward track. The waypoint info is displayed and track shows on map, but the AP won't follow it. I even tried turning it off and back on again. If it's working for everyone else then either my install is borked, or I'm missing something very simple. This same procedure works on every other aircraft I've flown in this sim and others.

Here are two screenshots:

This one is after takeoff with AP and NAV on.

And this one after intercepting the track with AP and NAV on. Notice the AP makes no attempt to turn onto track.

Disregard what the tooltip tells you, press NAV and ROL will change to GPS.

Yes you're on VOR1. Click that area then the screen splits then press the NAV to show FMS which uses GPS which displays the Course Line in Magenta.

VNAV is broken though if set before Cruising. Also the Green Diamond GS may not display as mine doesn't yet follows the GS.

Oh yeah, I just noticed that you're not in the right mode.

Thanks guys, think I got it working now. Had no idea CDI options was a thing.

It's supposed to AutoTune for ILS so it may or not appear to Load the Frequency when it's at 6nm. It may still require inputting Manually which if you need can use ICAO Search here:

I'm still finding many ILS are not loading after they updated the Airac to 2016 and updates monthly. Priorities on Live Streams and City/POI Updates is shocking really.

Hello guys,
since the last update I have the same problems with the cessna 172 G1000. I can`t activate the nav mode. Normaly I press the CDI and then there is GPS is choosen. Then I can push the NAV-mode-button. But nothing happens, now.
And the button displays are since the last update not more white. The newest color is grey now. Anybody still there, who has the same problems?

Are you using the G1000 NXi mod?
