Default Rear-Seat Climate/Radio Controls

Hi guys, I have a '13 GS with the Luxury Package that has the rear seat climate & radio controls. I'm not sure if there is an issue or if the system is locked....Of the rear controls everything related to audio portion works correctly...Now if I try to turn on the heated seats, or change the temperature, or blower speed none of those work as they should.

Any suggestions?

tpjc1018,

are you talking about the temp control and blower speeds for just the rear or for both front and rear? I honestly have not tried the rear controls on mine since I'm always driving but you might check to see if your A/C is set to 3 zone.

Do you have S Flow on? Doesn't S Flow turn off the rear A/C?

No i think hes talking about a special option it was for an audio and ac control that is built into the rear arm rest for the rear passangers to feel vip..

Yeah, I understand. I was just thinking S Flow might turn off/disable those rear seat controls.

Reading a bit in the 4GS owner's manual I doubt it's S Flow as I previously thought, though I do see you can disable the controls through the HVAC screen, so you may want to check and see if that got selected somehow.
