The rear seat AC control located in the back of the center under the rear facing air ducts has dislodged from its housing. How can it be reinstalled. Can’t find a way to disassemble the center console to allow access to engage the AC control’s mounting clips into the center console’s mounting stations. Please help!
Thx

Ouch. Sorry but no idea - there is obviously a way, may just have to pay the dealer 1 hour labor to do it. Maybe someone has some console disassembly bits on youtube?

Checked YouTube and didn’t find anything. Was hoping for help on this site.

I had the same issue. The dealer fixed it under warranty. I don't know how but the technician left the tool in the truck..I will post it I can find it. By the looks of it, I believe it' was used to remove the vent which I thought was the route to take when I thought about fixing it myself

Thanks for response. I’ll see what I can do without the special tool - which sort of aggravates me that one is required….

A flat head might do..vw tool less risky

That looks like a standard auto trim removal tool. Check Amazon: Auto Trim Removal Tools

Thanks for response. It’s not clear to me how to send you a private message. Can I trouble you to guide me through that? Sorry, I’m low tech : )

Just use a trim tool or flat head around the edge of the panel the whole thing pops off without any screws and can be fixed in 3 mins
