87 205.  G5.  King 150FD.  Avidine 540

Plane will fly perfect non precision approach including entry etc and vertical guidance when appropriate god's enabled but will not fly a simple ILS.   Tried every parameter gpss on and off. Nav mode.  App mode..

Just won't work.   Any idea what I'm doing wrong?   Reread all the books...still no go???

I think you are saying that you have a KFC 150 autopilot with the original KI 256, and a G5 replacing the HSI.

When you say that it "will not fly a simple ILS", I assume you mean that you don't get a ILS glideslope.

The navigator needs to put out a signal to enable the glideslope when the autopilot is in APR mode. It should do this when tuned to an ILS frequency or when a GPS approach with vertical guidance is active. I'd check that the wiring is correct and that the IFD and the G5 are configured properly. Probably a job of an avionics shop unless you have all the installation manuals.
