I suggest reinstalling the 737-200 Base Pack. Run the installer as an administrator if using Vista/Win7/Win8. Select Repair when asked to Repair or Uninstall.
If that doesn't fix it, do a complete uninstall, remove the 737-200 entry from the registry, then reinstall (requiring you to reactivate the product). Full instructions on how to do this can be found by checking-in to Your Profile > Product > Customer Support > Search KB or Submit New Ticket and search for KB #685.

I had a similar problem after purchasing the 737 and after searching the forums for what seemed like hours, I found a solution that worked for me.

Make sure you turn on both engine generators located on the overhead panel, a little bit above the runway turnoff light switches.  They are labelled GEN 1 and GEN 2.  My landing lights, nav lights, and a number of key instruments do not work unless I flip both switches when I begin with my engines running.

I hope this helps.

Hi John.

I mistook a simple problem for a bigger one. My bad.

It might be worth trying to follow the normal procedures in the ‘737 Captain’ FLIGHT MANUAL Part III –Normal Procedures manual (csx737_manual3.pdf).
