Hi Carl,
Check your armrest compartment and there is a switch there. Put it to unlock position and see if that will fix your problem. See picture below.
Let me know if this helps.
That's the valet mode. That was the first place I checked.
Try to reset the system by unplugging the negative source of the battery for a minute then plug it back. Check the issue again.
