Zoe seat heating failure

I had a similar issue with my Zoe (though I can't remember the year) a while back. Does the error code point specifically to a break in the heating element circuit or a more general 'seat heating malfunction'?

The error code is specific, indicating an open circuit within the seat heating element itself. Were you able to resolve the problem yourself, or did you require professional assistance?

Ah, open circuit points to exactly the same issue I had. I tried to fix it myself, but the element is buried quite deep in the seat and I was worried about damaging the leather. Ended up taking it to a workshop; they confirmed the heating element was faulty and replaced the seat heater mat. Bit pricey but worth it in the end. I'd recommend getting a quote from your local shop.

Thanks for confirming the likely cause and the recommendation. I've received a quote of approximately 390€ for the heating element replacement. It appears a workshop visit is the most prudent course of action. Thanks again for the helpful advice!
