A malfunction has occurred with the driver's memory seat in my Range Rover HSE 4.6 (P38A). Specifically, the button for electronically adjusting the seat's height and height of the head restraint has stopped working (seemingly spontaneously). The motor under the seat that I believe to control these functions also gets very hot and makes a regular clicking sound every 2 minutes or so (as if the seat was trying to resume its memory setting but was unable to do so because of a malfunction or jam with that particular movement).
I have now had that and all the other seat controls beneath the seat disabled by disconnecting the motor connections (these other controls adjust seat tilt, backward and forward movement and luber support inflation) which has stopped that motor heating up, as well as stopping the clicking sound.
No malfunction or error messages are being displayed, so I am wondering whether this may be due to something blocking the track or something unrelated to the components themselves?
Any suggestions as to what may have gone wrong, and possible solutions for this would be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks,
JMNL
