I've moved your thread to modded support because I'm seeing some things I don't recognize and I suspect that's the origin of your troubles. I hope someone else that does recognize this comes along with helpful suggestions soon.

Looks like Realism Overhaul to me, in which case the stock delta-V system was deliberately disabled by RO since it's very inaccurate.

Use MechJeb's SmartASS instead of stock SAS, the maneuver planner to create and execute nodes and the delta-V window to get (mostly) accurate delta-V readings, and make sure to switch on 'prevent unsafe ignitions' in the MJ settings menu so that you don't waste engine ignitions without ullaging first (the engine icons in the staging menu should be white, not red or yellow, to prevent that 'vapor in feedlines' problem).

One more thing- move the Apollo capsule to an earlier stage as that activates the capsule's built-in RCS for re-entry.
