*Before i get it to my confusion i've only have played on the CS 767 for 2 days i got it on the 2 of march and i do not torrent i bought the product (which Im very impressed with).

     So, i try to autopilot I've set up a flight plan which i normally fly out of KMEM to other airports but to be exact KJFK. All the information has been entered into my FMC and on the overhead panel my IRU selectors are all set to NAV. when i start to turn my LNAV and VNAV on the AP panel the lights for the LNAV and the VNAV don't illuminate and the aircraft doesn't follow my flight plan.    Huh what did i do wrong?
  

Yours truly,&&John

After finishing entering the route in the CDU/FMC, are you activating it? If you haven't, you should see a message saying "NO ACTIVE ROUTE" on the CDU/FMC when you press LNAV.
