Rover 200 & 400 Owners Club

Hi all,
my 45 Connisseur had factory fitted heated front seats that are now not working, never did since I brought the car. When the switch is pressed the red LED lioghts up so I suspect power is there, I've yet to check the cable under the seat, presumably thats where the element is supplied from.

Has anyone ever fixed them before and if so how? Or is there a place that can do it for me?

Any help appreciated as always

The main thing to do is check there's power going to the heated seat element. If there is - the element pad is the culprit.

No idea if the 45 pads are still available but I snaffled pretty much seemingly the last NOS 75 one some years ago for mine - it's a job best left to a trimmer to strip the seat and replace it, to avoid damage and a neat, professional finish.

If you need the part number for the pad, PM me your VIN and I'll look it up for you.
