Front Massage & Rear Ventilated seats - den - 08-30-2023 After activating the fancy High Beams, there's nothing really interesting to do with my 2017 S90 Inscription... so I thought why not activate the Massage on the Front Ventilated seats? I was hoping Massage is just a simple upgrade for OrBit ... but it's not. The massage appeared in the seat settings, but it's doing nothing. Does Volvo really have some separate motors for the massage? And it's the same for rear ventilation, the rear seats are perforated, option appeared in the menu, but no air coming towards the rear passengers bottoms. Did anyone try retrofitting or activating these 2? Am I doing anything wrong or I'm just asking for too much. Front Massage & Rear Ventilated seats - apollodome - 08-30-2023 The seats are totally different. The massage ones have air bladders built in that inflate/deflate to create the massage effect. Similar to the ventilation -- there's an audible fan you hear kick on (rather loud) when you turn that feature on.

I enabled massage seats in config but the option doesn't appear in the IHU. Anyone done this yet?

I did full upgrade of seats, I retro fitted S90 (Massage, heated and Vent Front seats, and heated & Vent. rear seats) to my 2019 S60 Momentum (used to be :-) ) that had only front heated seats. So, massage seats are totally different and it has nothing to do with Heated & ventilated elements and controllers. Massage seats have their own controller and power wire from fuse box. For the rear seats (adding heated and ventilated) is completely different story. Requires whole bunch of wiring. Even if you get and replace your (heated & ventilated ) seats with (heated & ventilated & massage & side support) and then activate from Orbit, still it won't work. Because you have a missing power wire. From PIN 15 of each seat connector to the fuse box with 7.5 AMP fuse. Both seats (PIN15) are connected to the same fuse. RE: Front Massage & Rear Ventilated seats - dustin - 03-17-2024 Fair enough! RE: Front Massage & Rear Ventilated seats - Altawashm - 03-21-2024 I suggest a good garage to do the wiring for u. I upgraded my front seats as well And it needs somework. |
