Iirc fuse 15 runs the seats and half a dozen other major systems as well.

could be the thermostat in the seat didnt cut out causing the fuse to pop, (assuming you had seat on at the time)

keep a couple of 15amp fuses spare with you, and give the car a run with the seats off, if the fuse is ok after that then it confirms the seat is the culprit.

kev checked 29 on mine with seats on, no power to that either, well 0.2 volts or similar. Not sure what 29 does? Although it's clearly heated seat related.

See paper clip test in maintenance,  no need for a reader, bit it only reads engine codes.

Fuse 29 feeds the heated seat switches but i suspect the signal from them only feeds the control unit in the seat. Power for the heaters comes from somewhere else, probably the main feed into the seat for the motors. Can't remember which fuse that is fed by.
