Question PSI gauge on right of dash cluster

I have a 2023 911 Turbo. When I am parked or driving, there is no reading on the PSI gauge above fuel gauge on the right side of the dash cluster. See photo taken when car was parked. I'm not sure what this gauge is for and whether this is normal. Thanks for your advice.

That’s your boost pressure. Unless you’re on the throttle vacuum is being produced so you won’t see any. On the gas your turbos should be producing boost and you’ll see the “psi gauge” move. You probably won’t see it as your eyes are on the road.

also can’t see it because it’s hidden behind the steering wheel.

Thanks for the responses.

I was able to see the gauge while driving and looking from the right side of the steering wheel and the gauge is working fine.

As an aside, I don’t understand why the instrument cluster was designed so that the outer gauges are obscured by the steering wheel. Did the Dashboard Team not talk to the Steering Wheel Team during the design phase?!

When that gauge is working and showing lots of boost you shouldn't be looking at it anyways. Its not something you need to see while driving.

While driving, speed, RPM, Gear and temps are the main items. The rest is fluff.
