Argo seat heater malfunction

My 2022 Fiat Argo with a gasoline engine is giving me a headache. The seat heater isn't getting warm at all. Hooked it up to a diagnostic tool and it's throwing an error related to the seat heating element. Anyone else run into this? I'm suspecting a defective heating mat in the seat cushion.

I had a similar problem with my Argo. Does the error code specifically point to the heating element or a thermal sensor?

The error code is vague, unfortunately. It only says 'Seat heating defective'. Did yours show the same error, and did you end up replacing the seat cushion?

Yep, same error message. I'd suggest taking it to a workshop to confirm, but it does sound like a faulty seat cushion. They should be able to diagnose it properly and give you a quote.

I appreciate the insight. I'll take it to the shop to get it checked out. Will post the resolution. It was indeed the heating mat in the seat cushion, and the repair cost me 390€. Thanks again for your help!
