Why "No Autoland" all the time?

I need some autoland 101!
Everytime I try to do an autoland I always get "no autoland". Why? I'm using the 737-800 CDU file from PM's website. My approaches are always stabilized. Any comments welcome.

What steps are you taking to do the autoland?

I'm not taking any steps, per say. I am usually stabilized at the intercept altitude around 170-150 knots intercepting within 45 degrees of approach track. I keep gear up until GS intercept. Are there certain parameters the aircraft must be within in order to activate an autoland?

Hi,

Do you have both nav1 and nav2 at the same ILS frequency, plus both A/P's on? It works fine for me.

Confirming: you need both nav on ILS freq. and 2 AP on.

I didn't have both A/P on. Thanks!

AND BOTH Nav1 and Nav 2 MUST be on same ILS frequency for the AUTO LAND to work

Success in your autolanding......

I would guess that QNH must be set on both sides aswell;)
