Exactly. Take another look in the settings menu -- somewhere you'll see a place to enable the PDC display...

Has your car been in the shop? Sounds like it has been switched off some how. Do what Rudy say's and it should work fine.

Under settings - vehicle/tires - PDC - you'll see PDC display, make sure it is checked on.
