Default Rear Seat Heat controls dont work?

I have a 2010 Ls460 Sport and I noticed my rear Armrest controls dont work, its the heated seats and rear sunshade. My front controls for the rear sun shade works but the heated seats front control doesnt by the shifter. Anyone have similar issues, or can help me?

■ page 361 of the Owner's Manual:

Button lock function
5-seat models

4-seat models

To prevent inadvertent operation, the buttons

on the rear armrest can be locked. Press

“MODE” until you hear a beep to lock the

buttons. Pressing “MODE” again until you

hear a beep will release the lock.

The indicator appears on the display when

the buttons are locked.

mine doesnt have a Mode button in the back. I only have the 2 heated seat ***** and a rear sun shade button. And all dont work. The rear sunshade works from the drivers position but the rear heated seats doesnt.

The HVAC "Mode" button is the one up front that traditionally selected the
mode of operation ie., dash vents, floor vents, defroster. Now largely unused
on Lexi with "Auto" HVAC it car prove useful in allowing you to override the
default airflow choices. When the Auto HVAC chooses to blow all the cool
air through the dash vents but your feet are hot, just tap the Mode button to
select Dash & Floor flow.

When you wish to "lock out" the rear seat controls so the children or pets can
not fiddle with them simply press and hold your front panel HVAC "Mode"
button till it chirps.

Hah! It took forever to find the fuse, I got lucky and found a forum post detailing a symptom of that fuse- no trunk lights- and it led me there. This car has so many damn fuses and so many of them control completely unrelated things- Same fuse controlled the rear driver's side door key proximity sensor (only on that door, only on ign. off, because it gets power somewhere else on ign. on), trunk light, and the rear controls. I was driving around for weeks with the rear door not locking and no idea that it was even happening, found out by pure accident when someone tried to open the rear door with the car locked and it opened.

still no. I just dont use the rear controls so I gave up for now. I did have to replace my front air suspension so that was a nice $4400 bill. Lol

Damn! Yeah I wouldn't be looking at going down a rabbit hole with electronics anytime soon either. I'm going to be trying a few things. If I find a solution I will post back in the forum
