How do you keep the HDG select from being on all the time??

Do you mean, "When I press LNAV and the LNAV led turns on the heading Select still stays lit too" ? just wondering becasuse mine did this too but a small fix in the MCP sioc file sorted it out, thanks to another member here.

I also saw that, but it was on, on the panel. A kitty hawk 737-700 I think. Don't have that issue anymore. Thats the first thing I would check.

Whenever i turn the AP on, HDG select automatically comes on even though my switch is off. I have auto hdg and VS off in the ini file.

If i am in VOR/LOC mode and shut it off, hdg comes on by itself. Does it with any plane i fly and i don't use LNAV or VNAV.

Sounds like a conflict with an fs panel. Have you disabled the panel for the model you fly?
