SL55..both seats don't work

Just got my new to me SL55..

When I click 'pulse' or try to use the ventilated seats..or any other seat function on that same control panel it doesn't do anything

This is on both seats..

I can move the both seats just fine...I just can't do ventilated or any of the other functions on the front of the seats.

The pulse light lights up, as well as the ventilation lights up..so I'm thinking it can't be a fuse...(?)...

I just got the car so I'm really hoping I'm missing something..

Let me see if I understand correctly. I need to take both my seats and put the both headrests down all the way...and then hold what for 30 seconds?

It could be this also, as this is what has happened to,under the seat there are some plastic pipes were the air comes in from the pump into the seat once you press the button one of the pipes came off the holder and air was escaping out so everytime I tried the button the pump in the boot was working but the seat was not as air was going out in the end I burnt the pump which is situated in the boot so when you press the button listen to see if you can hear air escaping under the seat.

When your seats are realy at the back-end, you won't be able to move anything. Just push them forward 2 or 3 inches and you can start to find a good position again.
