B727 panel problem

      HELLO everyone
 I have a strange problem. The panel I use for a B727 Air France that I downloaded uses an XML gauge for the autothrottle arm switch and for the TOGA switch The cab file for this 727KMI.cab. The problem I am having is when ever I select this air craft the switches for autothrottle and TOGA wil not work when I click on them.
The strange thing is if I select any other aicraft that wuold use a autothrottle, and turn on the Auto throttle, and the CMND switch then switch back to the 727 they work fine. I have a hunch something is not right in the xml file . I would list it but I am at work. Can anyone shed some light on what might be going on here

     Thanks Gary Buska

Hmm...that's odd. Sounds like a faulty gauge. You're best bet is probably to get CFGEdit (if you don't have it) and replace them. If you need help just give me a yell, panels are all I do. :P

   I have panel design from flight one that will do the trick, but was hoping not to have to alter the panel. But that what I might have to do I am still playing around with the xml file in hopes I can get it to work. It would help if I knew what exactly I was looking for, but I really do not under stand the xml langauge. I am searching for some info on this and will advise as to what I find.
     Thanks for the help though.

Well I don't use a lot of xml gauges really. Stick more to my own designs of regular styles. You can find lots of tutorials on XML on the web though (google it). Hope it helps!
