Narrative:
Location: intercepting final approach ILS runway 31L jfk. I had a frequency of 111.35 for ILS runway 31L set and idented instead of the proper frequency of 111.5 for the ILS runway 31R. We were intercepting the ILS 31L when I noticed the FMC course line for the ILS runway 31R not agreeing with the localizer course. We were correcting the error and ATC also noticed the error and gave us a heading to correct so to intercept the ILS runway 31R course. I believe there was no conflict with any traffic. I must be more careful in what I do. Think just a little longer before completing a task.

Title: PARALLEL APCHS AT JFK. FLC MISTUNED ILS FREQ AND FOLLOWED WRONG LOC UNTIL DISCREPANCY NOTED, THEN CORRECTED.
Narrative: LOCATION: INTERCEPTING FINAL APCH ILS RWY 31L JFK. I HAD A FREQ OF 111.35 FOR ILS RWY 31L SET AND IDENTED INSTEAD OF THE PROPER FREQ OF 111.5 FOR THE ILS RWY 31R. WE WERE INTERCEPTING THE ILS 31L WHEN I NOTICED THE FMC COURSE LINE FOR THE ILS RWY 31R NOT AGREEING WITH THE LOC COURSE. WE WERE CORRECTING THE ERROR AND ATC ALSO NOTICED THE ERROR AND GAVE US A HDG TO CORRECT SO TO INTERCEPT THE ILS RWY 31R COURSE. I BELIEVE THERE WAS NO CONFLICT WITH ANY TFC. I MUST BE MORE CAREFUL IN WHAT I DO. THINK JUST A LITTLE LONGER BEFORE COMPLETING A TASK.
