Does anyone know any good mechanica in the Derby area who can replace a rotary coupler.
Also what is the best reasonably priced obd2 scanner that reads and clears faults

I was told that it would be that. I have a airbag warning light on and the heated seats stopped working all at the same time. However the button inducation light is still working.

Can be a brocken cable under the seat … or somewhere else. Also working on the air bag system can be dangerous …

If there's an issue with the seat heaters, and an airbag warning, it's very unlikely to be the rotary coupler.
A diagnostic is the way forward first, before replacing stuff that's not at fault.
The wiring under the seat is where I'd be looking though.
