Heads up display stops working after setting Date & Time in iDrive

As I've posted, brand new to the X5 and finally got around to figuring out how to set the date and time on the idrive.

Once it was set, I noticed that the heads up display wasn't working anymore. It was during the day, and really sunny out, so I figured that the heads up display was set to a time clock when it started to get dark. Not the case.

It hasn't worked since, even after adjusting the brightness settings to max in the idrive menu.

Any pointers? Thanks!

Did you turn it back on using the button on the light switch?

Hahaha, yep that was the issue.

*facepalm*

Thanks for the help. Now you can tell what a rookie I really am to the BMW and X5. Loving it so far!
