Tutorial 2 FMC problem

[CKAJCA 1]

I am now trying to follow the Tutorial 2 and cannot get anything to work in the section Advanced FMC Route Modifications. I am trying to do a Direct To exactly as decribed in the manual. I Press LSK2L to copy TESGA into the scratch pad (it appears at the bottom of the FMC). I then Press LSK1L to enter TESGA over the top of the active waypoint. TESGA disappears from the bottom of the FMC and nothing else happens. I have also tried typing in TESGA in the scratchpad by clicking on the appropriate letters and then pressing LSK1L over the top of the active waypoint. In this case what I typed still appears on the scratch pad and nothing else changes. What am I doing wrong? I get the impression that I am doing something wrong with the scratchpad :-(

TESGA over the top of the active waypoint. TESGA disappears from the bottom of the FMC and nothing else happens.

TESGA never appeared on line 1?

Hi,

 

Silly question... when you click on the LSK 1L  button, are you on the page 1 of the leg page?
