I'm no expert at all on such matters.

I'd be tempted to check the basics first. Have the connectors under the seat worked loose or been damaged due to the cables being pulled in and out by one short and one tall driver. If you see my meaning? |

I had a similar problem on mine (also a tdv8 vogue se). In the end it was with the dealer, Marshalls of Cambridge, for about a week all told being diagnosed and the repaired (under warranty, phew). They gave a similar story about part of the control circuit not working properly but I am not certain which but it was, sorry. |

Mine also stopped working once only on the drivers side. The next day, they worked. Go figure. Discovery 4 HSE

I have had issues with both seats, the passenger seat the fans actually needed replacing, £600. The drivers side was the control module £200 both were fixed by main delalers. |

I would say its a main dealer issue but keep them on a tight leash. I had a similar problem. Pass side fine. Drivers side all lights on but no heat. However worked fine for my wife. We checked everything obvious then main dealer decided to fit new fan £600 and still didnt work. Turned out to be one of the pipes in the back of the chair that sends the air around had come loose causing the air to blow over the fan unit. The fan unit was then getting too hot and shutting down. When my wife was in the car she was not heavy enough to dislodge the pipe - Simples !

Thanks everyone for their replies. I spoke to indy and he is currently investigating another one which has exactly the same issue. Maybe there will be a few more eventually also knowing Land Rover. He is going to report back to me with his findings, so just having new pads and discs all round, numberplate light, horn, door seal and a battery check!! Thank god its not dealer prices!! Will reply again if/when I find out what it is. |

I had mine done at the dealer again it was circa 500 quid from memory but they did replace the fans and then the control modules all in the price as the seat didn't work after they changed first part so they never charged for it and have to say I had a loan car for the duration quite a big bill but brilliant service - probably doesn't help much but as others have said they are complicated so what I did was pay for diagnostics then got a quote for it fixed which they didi and stuck to |

It's worth seeing if the pipe between the fan and the Peltier cell has split mine had on my back rest and if the fan runs and no air gets to the cell the unit will shut down but leave the lights on , I have bodged with gaffer tape until I can source a new pipe. The split is right where it goes behind the metal cross bar .
