2019 L405 Electric Rear Armrest Stuck

Afternoon folks, a pal of mine has just bought a 2019 L405 AB facelift with the electric rear armrest. It won't allow that seat to fold which is a real pain for him!

Has anyone got any experience of this please? Many thanks in advance...

Has he checked the child lock isnt activated? I believe that stops the activation of the armrest too (or it does on mine) First time FFRR owner

I will ask the question...

It's very strange! The cup holders open & close but the armrest won't do anything!

the hinges on the compartment lid are fragile, maybe check it isnt broken and fouling the movement. First time FFRR owner

Is the ski hatch properly closed? It happened to mine a couple of times (seats not folding) and it looked / felt shut but I released it and slammed it shut which sorted the problem. MY23 Panamera E-Hybrid

My other half's 2018 MY AB rear electric arm rest is stuck in the down position.
The hinge on the lid is also broken.
Not a major problem as such.
Hoping someone on here might have a solution?

I had this issue on my 2019AB. The dealer said that they reset the seats and did a software update.

I hope this helps. 2019 Autobiography SDV8 Byron blue/black - current

Just wanted to close this off as Problem Fixed... So, spent an hour in the back seat prodding and poking and found the problem was the internal lid not closing correctly... Thumbs Up

This happened to me, the armrest was stuck half way down. I gave the ski hatch bit a thump and it started working again. 2016 AB SDV8 Barolo black
