Hi there,

I already discover the trouble, thanks to your photos!
In the last 2 photos, that you sent, we can see a blue a and a black connectors. Those connector are the link between the back and cushion heating. In my seats there is missing a wire to connect de black connectors.
In local dealer I can't find the reference to order these cable. Is there anyway that you can make a photo of that cable or of the reference oem, so than I can order from BMW dealer?
Here are the photos from my seat where we can see the black connectors without connection, because there is a missing wire!

Perhaps this will help with the numbers, the driver's seat may be different to the passenger's as your car is left-hand drive. https://www.lllparts.co.uk/product/6111 ... ivers-side

hi there again,

I've already identified the missing part in my seats:

the part has the Ref.: 5210-791950, and the BMW Part number: 52 10 7 919 250

unfortunately local dealer informed that this part number is no longer available...

In eBay or in the internet I can't find this part number!

Does anyone can help?

If we know in detail this part, maybe we could fabricate a new one?

thank you very much!

Put an advert in the "Z4 parts wanted" for the wiring loom. A few members have many spare parts.

Yesterday I stared a new journey: GM5 module repair !

1 or 2 years ago, the door locking and unlock start's to have some issue and, specially on unlocking procedure, with the remote, the driver's door doesn't work...

After a little search, the module GM5 appears to have issues with time!!!

So yesterday I remove the GM5 module, and today I've sent the module to repair!

here are some pictures:
