Drive Mode Missing on IC

Posted this without response on DIY STAR. Hoping anyone have idea to fix my Instrument Cluster to get the drive mode reading back. Thanks!

was messing with my scanner and must have coded something, now I can’t tell which mode I’m on From IC.

Had to go to transmission and disable auto transmission option on SDS; in my case, Autel MaxiSys Mini. Weird, but Kyle Linders figures it out, could of used it couple months ago while I was tracking car, was driving blind and couldn’t really tell for sure if I’m on which drive mode. Affected my time slip.

Don't remember the specific... here’s what Kyle instructed.

“Other thing to check is under programming, then central gateway. Check to make sure comfort automatic transmission is not enabled. If it is, disable and display will work. If neither of those works then I think it's more than a coding issue”

Sweet I will give that a try tonight after work . Thanks to You and Kyle .
Here's another one . I have "One Performance" Dual Oil Catch Cans and I want to get them plummed in correctly so I don't cause any Issue .
There are not any specific diagrams on line that I can find anyway on the matter . There is one set of pics on here but they are unclear . I don't want to elliminate the CrankCase Breather all together but put them in line with the factory set up . One can for each side . . Any help with that would also be very appreciative . Thanks Guys !
