E70 heated seats
 

Can anyone help please, my front seat covers were replaced under warranty and now have the heated elements. I have purchased the controller with the heated seat function and fitted it. There seems not to be any where to connect the heated element into under the seat and I think some wiring is missing from the reat fuse box. BMW have checked and informed me there is:
1. only 1 loom for all E70's
2. there is no additional wiring available
3. The seat's will need coding in

i fully understand that this may be a long process, but I'm not changing the vehicle and am happy to make up some wiring. There must be something on the open market for coding etc or only main dealers will be able to work on modern vehicles.

Help please anyone.

hi, i don't understand. if your car is under warranty why not let the service department to worry and figure out how to make it work?

I think his car came from the factory without heated seats. He had his seat covers replaced under warranty and now has the heaters, but no wiring to hook up the new heaters.

Thats correct and BMW are currently not helping!! Apart from the coding issue is it just some kind of control unit under the seat I need?

Again any help please
