Multifunction seats

I have a 2011 A207. I am trying to figure out the issue with the multifunction seats. It has been a while since they have worked. Where and what is the fuse for these. Nothing works with any of the controls. If I can remember there used to be a light that lit up and now not even that works. Any help appreciated.

Heres the manual ive been looking thru: https://charm.li/Mercedes%20Benz/201...d%20Diagnosis/

Fuses found under Power and ground distribution > Fuse.

Can also look under Body and frame > Seats.

Fuses in trunk. Seems 44,45 and 60 are seat related.

Thanks Tim C. I have seen that diagram. I was looking in the trunk by the spare tire last night. The area that holds #60 seems to be missing some fuses or came that way? Also there are a few plastic half doors that cover some of the fuse. Do they rotate or something? I was afraid I was going to break them. If there was power to the seats wouldn't the control have a light on?

Hey Jetson.

Sniff around for a slight burned smell back near the aforementioned trunk fusebox. The pneumatic pump that operates the multi function system is located nearby. Mine burned itself out due to a leak in the system (twice)..and I could smell it.

or maybe I'm wrong.

best,

Mark


ps I seldomt drive at night..so I don't really know about the seat functions being lit.

These sams are used by numerous models so may not be populated by the same fuses.

What is your vin, ill try to find the wiring diagrams.

And what control are you talking about, on the door or down below on the side of the seat? I just have basic electric seats in my W204 and dont think there is a light on anywhere for it.

Fuse 60 only applies if you have Option Code 409.

Looks like there are small tabs on the sides of the covers. Probably use a tiny flat head screw driver and push it outwards to unlock the tab.

Well I was driving car and the lumbar inflated out of nowhere! It didn’t last long and deflated after 5 min or so. I couldn’t get any of the other buttons to work. I checked all the fuses in the trunk near the spare tire and all were fine. Where to go next?

well..

now you know that the pump works fine ! Next step would be to disassemble the seat enough to inspect all air lines..connections, and seats bladders for a leak. After replacing all of the aforementioned on my car about 4 years ago, the feature worked well for about 2 months. Occasionally ( like yours) the lumbar will inflate/deflate.

A very poor design.

yup.

Thanks. It really does not seem like it would be worth it. I have not missed it at all!
