Mark,On the FMC, click the NAVRAD button. On the lower left side, enter the frequency and the runway heading required, in the following manner:-110.30/272 This might be for Heathrow runway 27R (from memory) and you enter the frequency first followed by a slash then the heading of the runway 9all found on your chart).You must be within range of the ILS for it to "activate" on the ND screen and in fact this is normal after a go-around or where you have carried out some kind of wave off and you want to have another go.Hope this helps,cheers,Lee
