I was flying an ILS into Burbank CA and the autopilot kicked off. I had passed through the final approach course and was going back but the FD wants to go the opposite way. What nav point is driving the FD and is there a way to tell. This seems to happen a lot. I know where I want to go and the FD has a mind of it's own.

See the GA roll mode in the FMAs? That tells me you've accidently pressed TO/GA and put the plane into Go-Around Mode. In which case the FD is commanding wings level.

Sometimes I have to laugh!  

I had lost the ATS and the only way to reset that I knew about was to disconnect the FD, push TOGA and get it back. Operator error. This is the first aircraft (real or sim) that had a TOGA button for me to play with. The fun for me is playing with all these new toys and trying to figure out what they do. I am finding more good documentation which is shortening my learning curve. :-) Thanks for the help. It is valuable.
