Hi. I moved all my software to a new/old lenovo i5. I installed everything new. Everything is OK except switching FD2 button. One time also vertical speed rotary changed up and down itself but it did not do it again. Also I noticed that green Goflight and aircraft lamps are blinking, while Sinconnect/FSX is stable green. I attached the log file.I hope it is a simple and known problem, easy to fix. Please help me.

Thanks in advance.

    The GoFlight light should not be continually blinking. It blinks where there is device activity such as a rotary being turned or a button pressed. HAs something got physically stuck e.g. a button pressed down continuously.

    Best wishes

    Yes, I think you are right. No problem when FD is on. When it is off, switching itself. At weekend I will try to replace the switch.

    Thank you very much.
