W213 66 e-class estate passenger rear seat release not working
hi all,
I have a W213 66 plate e-class estate that has an issue with the rear passenger seat release - neither of the buttons (one in boot, one by seat) to release the seat and allow it go lie flat are working on that side (driver side is fine). First thought was to to check the fuse schematic .... and there's my first problem. There does not appear to be a fuse in the fuse schematic that matches anything relating to "Seat release".
There is "Seat Adjustment Rear" but the rear seats are not adjustable and none of the corresponding fuses are installed.
The only other fuses that seem to be possible are a pair of large (40A ??) fuses called "Body Controller rear". I cannot find any specific information relating to these fuses or their function and assumed it was to do with driving function / stability!
Can anyone help me understand what fuse I might be looking for OR suggest an alternative diagnostic route that (hopefully) does not end up with me paying £150 per hour for someone to dismantle half the car to find the cause of the problem :-)
Thanks in advance!

This is the complete list of fuses from paper on side of fuse box in compartment in right hand rear of the boot / trunk.
this is a picture of my actual fusebox, with descriptions of each fuse identified from schematic on rear of fuse leaflet.
