Thanks! The error code is fairly specific, indicating an open circuit within the seat heating element. Fuses are intact. Was this the same problem you encountered? How did you resolve it?

Yep, sounds exactly like what happened to mine. Same error code, fuses fine. Unfortunately, it points to a faulty heating mat. Take it to a reputable workshop. They can confirm and give you an accurate quote. Could save hassle trying to fix it yourself.

Thanks! Seems a workshop trip is unavoidable. Got a quote for about 390€, which seems reasonable. Thanks again for confirming!

I had a similar issue with my V70. Does the error code point specifically to the heating element, or is it a more general code? Have you checked the seat heater fuses? Worth a look before tearing things apart.
