Default Rear AC vent 2022 IS

Before I call the dealer I wanted to ask here. I have a 2022 IS500 and no matter what setting I change I can’t get the ac vents in the back to blow air. I have tried to google this issue but didn’t find much.

I’ve already had an issues where the factory did not install my windows correctly which I had to take to the dealer.

is there a setting or button I am missing?

thank you for the help!

That's strange but the newer Toyota / Lexus cars have a specific button which will stop the airflow from going to the back and shoot everything out the front, I haven't seen that option in the IS but you have the IS500 which had a few changes so try looking for it in both the physical button form or go into the hvac settings in the headunit

I looks though all of my buttons and options also read the manual couldn’t find anything.

So on my 2016, if you adjust the physical flow clip to the outer most edges, it blocks the vent completely. You simply need to "unlock" them by adjusting the clip towards the center.
