Seat Inca Climate Control Issues

That sounds like a pain. I'm no expert, but have you checked all the fuses related to the climate control system? Could be a simple fix. Also, are you sure the blower motor is actually working? Sometimes they can fail intermittently. Have you tried wiggling the electrical connectors to the control panel?

Thanks for the suggestions. Where exactly would I find the fuses for the climate control? And when you say 'wiggling the electrical connectors', do you mean just giving them a little nudge, or is there a specific way to check them?

Okay, so if the fuses are all good and wiggling the electrical connectors didn't help, then it probably is a wiring harness issue, or maybe the control panel itself is faulty. Since you have low heat and the AC won't switch on, it does sound like something bigger than just a fuse. Honestly, with electrical stuff, unless you're really confident, it's probably best to get it checked by someone who knows what they're doing. Could save you from causing more damage. I'd recommend a garage, especially considering the error code. It's probably worth 95€ to get it fixed properly.

Just letting you know it's sorted. A local garage found a dodgy electrical connector on the HVAC system control panel. A new connector and a quick check of the wiring harness, and now the air conditioning system switches on, blower motor works, and heating is much better. Cost me 95€, which seems fair. Thanks for the help.
