Default XC90 rear climate control

My mate’s new car has the rear climate option. There is a lock symbol showing on the rear display and none of the controls work. The front climate screen has middle and rear climate enabled.

How do you unlock the rear screen? Are we missing something obvious?

New one on me, but have you looked in the sensus settings/climate settings by swiping down on the sensus screen to see if there is tick box that requires unticking,
(Not the climate settings on the front Sensus screen)

The third row climate control only works when one of the third row seat belts is buckled up.

Does rear climate screen and controls in Sensus also not work? That could point to whether it’s just a display issue or something more sinister.

I have 4 zone and in second year they had to do quite a bit of work under warranty as the rear did not blow cold air. There was nothing indicating anything was wrong - all controls were functioning.

I’ve never experienced what you describe and I have been through all the menu options in Sensus. I would love to be able to put a lock on it to stop kids messing around as the Volvo primitive 4 zone system makes do with only one fan.

You can definitely do the battery disconnect and several restarts to get all systems to reinitialise.

Never seen this (and I have rear climate control in my car). One thing I would try is to check if he has "sync temperatures" (or something similar however it is worded) selected in sensus.
It is displayed with a chain link icon in the sensus screen above the temperature selection. Maybe this stops the rear panel working?

Could it also possibly be due to having the rear child lock and window lock activated? Try that perhaps?

If only you hadn't gone and rashly rejected that first car of yours Lexman, then you would be able to play with this feature on your car too.......

Thanks, everyone.

Yep, went through each one in case the latest software had a lock feature as I know it's something others have requested.

Didn't know that.

Fairly sure they worked. I'll get him to check again.

Yes, every day I kick myself for that impetuous, ill-judged decision... - (Wow, you have a good memory. That was over 4 years ago!)

I'll ask him to try your other suggestions.
