Check the codes. There's a code reader built into the DIC on your car. Search for it and you'll find many answers.

Problems is, your system is disabled because of a problem, most likely.

ps. I'm not an expert as fixing them but finding out how to diagnose anything on these cars is available right here on the forum!
