Norden Flight Mode Annunciator doesn't display Autopilot info without fuse reset every flight

ISSUE DESCRIPTION

Description of the issue: In the Norden when AP is enabled, text is not displayed in the Flight Mode Annunciator (FMA) information strip.
Cycling the AP fuse out and in does enable the FMA text display. The fuse is in by default upon initial start of any flight, both from cold and dark and when starting on the runway. The AP fuse is displayed In but appears to require clicking to enable.

If applicable, which aircraft is experiencing this issue:
Zlin Savage Norden

[PC Only] Did you remove all your community mods/add-ons? If yes, are you still experiencing the issue? Yes. Yes.

Do you have the same issue if you follow the OP’s steps to reproduce it?
Not in v1.5.13.0

Provide extra information to complete the original description of the issue:
Text is visible in the text bar circled in the OP’s screenshot

  • Pic 1 shows the AP & Heading enabled
  • Pic 2 shows the AP is highlighted in yellow when the fuse is pulled. Pushing the fuse back in & clicking the AP back on re-enables the AP as in Pic 1.

This appears fixed since June 11th, when I have screenshots showing it was not working as per the OP’s post, above.
