As topic says ...

I have one shop aaa.whatever.com that works fine.

I set up a new multi store with the domain name: bbb.whatever.com

I created the new sub domain: bbb.whatever.com and I did point it to aaa.whatever.com
I also set up the new shop with logo, phone, address ets.

But when I go to bbb.whatever.com I still get the aaa.whatever.com ... what have I missed?

You don't point it to aaa... you set the default folder for it to whatever folder on your server that the opencart files are installed in. "Pointing" or redirecting bbb to aaa will of course pull up aaa. see http://forum.opencart.com/viewtopic.php?t=27538

Running Opencart v3.0.3.2 with multi-stores and the default template from https://www.labeshops.com which has links to all my stores.

Thank you, but I can't do that in my control panel (my isp does not use cpanel).
I can set up a new website for the subdomain OR I can point to another domain in my account, and that does not work.
Can I do it using .htaccess or index.php to redirect to the right folder somehow? header("location") does not work

No, it needs to be changed at the hosting level. I would contact your webhosts about how to do it.
