Auto Lane Change not working anymore after OTA update

[jonathan68]

This weekend I had auto lane change working for my P3D+ - However, I received the latest OTA update last night (2018.36.2 ac4a215) and when I tried auto lane change on this morning's commute it wouldn't take. Auto-Steer is working fine. Anyone else encounter this issue? Not sure if the update is related or not. And yes auto lane change enabled.

You actually trying to do auto lane change in the exact same spot (and same conditions) as before? Auto lane change (should) only work on a divided highway, and even then it has to detect the adjacent lanes.

I have a 37 miles commute each way, so no not the exact spot. But same divided hwy. And I made sure there was ample space. I will keep trying...

Could you see the lane on the screen that you were trying to change in to?

First try rebooting your screen by holding down both scroll wheels. If that doesn’t fix it, try turning off the auto lane change option and then turning it back on.

Thank you - I will try that.

Good question - I don't know - I will pay attention to that next time.

You should see the lane on your screen, then when you signal for the lane change, the divider line will turned dashed and the car will make the lane change if there are no obstructions.

Also, check to make sure auto lane change is still enabled in your settings. I think mine got disabled with the update and I had to turn it back on.
