Peugeot 5008 Seat Heater Failure

My 2012 Peugeot 5008 diesel has a seat heater problem. 94845 km on the clock. The seat heating doesn't get warm, and there's an error stored. I'm guessing the seat heating mat is defective. Anyone else had this?

I have the same car! Mine had a similar issue last winter. Is it completely dead, like switching on a light that doesn't work, or does it flicker a little bit? I found it incredibly frustrating, like trying to warm yourself with a cold cup of coffee.

It's completely dead, no sign of life at all. Just stone cold. Did yours end up being the heating mat itself?

Yeah, pretty sure it was the mat. I didn't want to mess with taking the seat apart, so I just took it to a workshop. They confirmed the mat was shot. To be honest, it was like trying to find a needle in a haystack trying to figure it out myself. Best left to the pros, I think.

Thanks for the info! I appreciate it. I'll get it checked out. It was the seat heating mat indeed, cost me 390€ to get it replaced.
