Massage seat in Peugeot 406 from 2002 does not work: Possible cause and experiences

Hey, I had exactly the same problem with my 2005 Peugeot 408. The end of the story was a defective cable connection/plug. The mechanic said that this is a common weak point in these models. It wasn't a big deal, but I had to leave my car in the workshop for a few hours. They replaced the faulty parts and everything worked again. In my opinion, this could be the case for you too. Hope this helps.

Hey, thanks for the valuable tip! That sounds like a good solution. Do you happen to remember how much it cost your mechanic? And have any unexpected problems arisen since the repair? It was really annoying last time, don't want to risk anything. Thank you!

Hello, glad I could help! I'm no longer sure, but I think I paid €95 to fix the faulty cable and plug. It was a real pain, but since then the massage seat has been running like a charm again. The mechanic also fixed the switch that was defective at the time. So far, no further problems have arisen since the repair. So, I would say there's nothing to worry about. The main thing is to find a decent mechanic that you have confidence in. Good luck, buddy!

Thanks, buddy! Your information is really helpful and gives me a lot of encouragement. I'll take your advice and find a reliable mechanic who can solve the problem for me. 95 sounds fair, as long as my massage seat works again afterwards, that's fine by me. I hope that no further problems arise. Have a good time. Cheers!
