Hi All, 

Im new to this forum thing so please bear with me - 2013 portfolio s with heated seats suddenly not working - took it in to the main dealer here in Milton Keynes and they tell me that they need to replace all the heated seat elements, circa £2400 ... i left crying, then when it was hot today i tried the cooling function on the seats and thats not working either - so how can that be elements?! - then i found an earlier post on here from someone with the same who said that his dealership identified it as a burnt out pin - im hoping either he reads this or someone else does that can tell me where to tell the dealership to find this pin!! - hope i hear back from someone :)

Hi, just to give a quick up date in a case anyone else has similar issues... I took it into H.A. Fox Jaguar in Preston and they sorted out the issue. Turns out it was a burnt out pin so they carred out a repair. All working fine now. No charge as covered under my Inchcape warranty.

They also sorted a couple of other extra things too while I were there for free too. Such as realigned my steering wheel as it was slightly out.

Really good service I found. Plus they did a general health check and made a small video recording of it and emailed it me. 

Hi Dave , not sure if youve still got this car but i have the same issue with the same model, im wondering if you had any further detail on which/what pin so as i can tell my dealership what to look for, they are trying to fleece me £2400 for seat elements which make no sense as what do they have to do with cooling!!
