Your are setting performance info?

Did you recently update your OS? Other thought: are there any discontinuities in the plan?

Can you create a flightplan from scratch using the FMC? ie, not using the other manufacturers flight plan creation tool. For example creating the flight plan as outlined in the manual.

the database is OLD ... like VERY OLD ... like from the early months of FS9's release ... and is included with all aircraft from feelThere. if you want an up-to-date AIRAC, like one that represents the current world (but not what exists in FS9 or FSX unless you have updated scenery files) you must purchase a database from Navigraph.

The mose controller menu through the system tools.

Yep, what you describe will work.

reads that your are not setting a intersecting course to the flight plan.

check to see that your mouse controller is set to the standard of a center click ... or if your mouse can do a center wheel click.

Before engaging the NAV are you on an intercept course for the routh's path?

You can also confirm not running FS in a compatibility mode. Or try in one.. Same goes for running the ejet installer. If FDX doesn't ask you to confirm the gauge your computer is blocking the install.

make sure UAC isn't active. make sure you are installing as administrator. your computer isn't allowing the installer to put the gauge file into FSX.

v2? what is this? v3? what is this?

your panel looks like this - http://forum.simflight.com/topic/78295-e-jets-v2-gauge-graphic-errors/?hl=panel#entry474554 (scroll down after clicking link)

also: when you first started FSX after installing EJet did the game ask you to approve the gauge package?

by no panel do you mean no gauges). also: which FSX version? all FSX SPs installed? OS version?

an official paintkit was never released Sean.

Was it working before?

my guess is this is the issue you are experiencing - http://forum.simflight.com/topic/80462-erj-v2-fuel-pumps/

see - http://forum.simflight.com/topic/76513-set-the-gmt-and-mapcode-fields/ especially note about how old and when/where you purchased Tower.

Fixed. For future reference use the edit button :-)

Sneak switches are errant control settings

Reads like you have a sneak switch somewhere in your configuration file for flight sim, or your sim controller. This is causing the fuel switch is to turn off. There is no such function designed into the simulation by feelthere.

If you do a search as I noted you will find operational manuals that detail all the knobs, switches, etc

You say you have initialized the FMC with your current location. The current location should come up on the FMC. If it's not it means the FMC cannot read the database. The Wilco planes carry the same database and also use the same programming as it was made for wilco by feelthere. I'm at a loss why one reads and one doesn't, which leads me to believe your install is corrupt or some other thing.
