Hi Antonio.

I finally got around to doing a flight with the Captain Sim 767-200, which uses the same VC and gauges as the 767-300, and here is the result:

No issues found
ŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻŻ
Total Score for this flight                                                | 100.0%
Landing rating                                                             | Moderate
Pilot rating                                                               | Excellent

Firstly, this is with FSFK v3.2.

I was using CTRL+L to turn the landing lights ON and OFF. In the CS 767 this does flip the switches for the landing lights as well, so I'm not surprised. If I just use the switches, I'm not sure if it is the same. There is a line in the EVENTS column that lists which lights are on:

Lights    NAV|BCN|STROBE|INST|LOGO|CABIN   12.50   16,842   267   11550 - Landing lights OFF event

Lights    NAV|BCN|LAND|STROBE|INST|LOGO|CABIN   14.39   10,195   242   10450 - Landing lights ON event

The |LAND| kept appearing/disappearing when I used CTRL+L so it worked fine. I got no warnings at all about the Glideslope. I did some testing and found that it detects the light switches in the VC and a new Lights event would appear when I turned the lights ON or OFF using the switches. So this tells me it is working fine. I do not fly VA online. I signed up with one, but I have never done an online VA flight.
