Hey, thanks for the quick reply! My Insignia is the Grand Sport version. So far I haven't had a visit to the garage for the seat heating. Everything was fine at the last service 133927 km ago. No idea what's wrong with it now. Your experience sounds expensive, hopefully I've only broken something small. Best regards!

Hello again! Ah, I actually have experience with the Grand Sport version. The seat heating in mine also broke recently, but it only affected one relay. Fortunately, it wasn't that expensive and was quickly fixed. In your case, it could simply be an electrical fault due to the high mileage. Or it could be the heating mat, as in my Astra. I would definitely advise you to have a garage look at it. Especially now that it's getting colder, a functioning seat heater is a real blessing. Keep your fingers crossed that it won't be that expensive for you! Greetings back!

Hello again and thanks for the help! It's good to know that maybe it really is just a minor electrical fault. The cold was really getting on my nerves without my heated seats! I'll take your advice to heart and pay a visit to the garage. Hopefully it's not expensive damage. Thanks again for your input and good wishes! Best regards back to you!

Hello, I had a similar problem with my Opel Astra, model 2019. Despite my limited experience with cars, I had the car checked by my garage. It turned out that the seat heating mat was defective. Unfortunately, it had to be replaced, which cost me 390.0 euros. But need a bit more information about your car to be able to help you better. Which exact Insignia model variant do you drive? Has the garage already carried out a fault diagnosis? Your answers may be helpful to better assess the problem. Greetings!
