Focus Peaking Not Showing Live

I have two SL2s. I have set them to display the histogram and focus peaking on the second InfoProfile. One of them does not display focus peaking during live view. Yet it does show the focus peaking on playback. Is there some setting that I am overlooking? I've gone through both cameras and the settings appear to be all the same.

Make sure Enhanced Live View is disabled on both cameras. It will kick in when the scene is dark to improve the EVF experience but the result is that focus peaking gets disabled when it kicks in.

Thank you. That did the trick. I must have turned it on to check it out and forgot to turn it off before saving some profiles.
