Default LX5000 stuck in cruise mode

Anyone have this issue - the cruise/climb switch on my LX5000 does not change the setting any more (vario stuck in cruise), the auto settings do not work. The switch itself is working so this has to be a software issue. Any ideas on how to fix it.

Hi Alan

check the Vario priority switch as per below, it might be the problem

The cable marked VAR PRIOR may be connected to a simple ON /OFF switch and may be installed in the instrument pannel. If the switch is closed the LX5000 will always be in the vario-mode, regardless of the position of the flap switch or the setting of the automatic speed command.
