508 Massage Seat Failure

I've got a 2013 Peugeot 508 diesel with about 133,000 km on the clock. The massage function in the driver's seat has suddenly stopped working. When I press the switch, nothing happens at all. I also scanned the car for errors and it shows a fault related to the massage seat. Any ideas what could be causing this? I'm hoping it's not a major issue!

Summary of the thread

The massage function in a 2013 Peugeot 508 driver's seat stopped working, with no response when the switch was pressed and an error code indicating a fault. Initial checks confirmed that fuses were intact, suggesting a possible bad connection. The issue was resolved by a workshop, which identified and fixed a loose connection in the seat, restoring the massage function.

That's a bit annoying on a car with that feature. Have you checked the fuses? Sometimes a blown fuse can cause electrical gremlins like this. Also, is there any sign of life at all from the seat motor, like a faint hum or click when you try to turn it on?

Thanks for the quick reply! I checked the fuses, and they all seem to be okay. I can't hear any noise at all coming from the seat when I try to activate the massage function. Is it possible it could be a bad connection somewhere?

Okay, since the fuses are fine and there's no sound at all, a bad connection is definitely a strong possibility. From what you've described, especially with the error code, it sounds like it could be a faulty cable or connector. Honestly, chasing electrical issues in seats can be a real pain. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop; they should be able to diagnose it properly and fix the connection.

Thanks for the advice! I took it to a workshop, and you were right – it was a loose connection in the seat. They re-secured the plug, and it's working perfectly now. The whole repair cost me 95€. Appreciate the help!
