C70 massage seat failure

I'm having an issue with my 2013 Volvo C70 diesel. The massage function in the driver's seat has stopped working. The switch does nothing. I've scanned the car and there's an error stored related to the seat, hinting at a potential electrical issue. I'm suspecting a faulty cable or plug connection. Has anyone else experienced this?

Massage seat issues, eh? I've got a C70 too. Seems familiar. Did you check the fuse box first? Is everything else on the seat working? Heated seat, movement, etc.?

Good shout on the fuses, thanks! I did check the fuses, and they all seem fine. Everything else on the seat works perfectly - heating, lumbar support, electric adjustments, no problem. It's just the massage function. Any chance you recall what the fix was for yours?

Ah, okay, if the fuses are good and everything else works, yeah, sounds exactly like what happened to mine. I messed with it for a bit, but honestly, I ended up just taking it to a workshop. Turned out to be a dodgy connector. Cost me next to nothing to have them sort it. So, yeah, sounds like a trip to the shop is in order, unfortunately.

Thanks for confirming! Sounds like I'm on the right track then. I was hoping to avoid the workshop, but connector issues can be a pain to trace. I'll get it booked in. The error code also suggested cable issues, I'll tell them to check the connectors first. They quoted around 95€, let's see. Thanks again!
