I tried using the APR autopilot mode for an ILS approach, and autopilot insisted on flying the plane as if trying to hold alt instead of descending on the glide-slope, though it would keep me on the right heading. I eventually just hand-flew it. As far as I know it's set up correctly. It's in NAV1 mode, localizer is live, and the glide slope and course are indicated on the instruments. The localizer has a glowing blue VLOC on it, and the indicator to the right of the autopilot modes has a glowing green "APP". What am I missing?
