"Good day, I purchased comfort seats for my Audi A8 D3 2004, but they are connected to the control unit that is already installed in my car." My standard seats only operate using direct electrical power.
I've read that if I want to connect the comfort seats now, I need to connect the positive and negative terminals, and I also need to briefly tap into the CAN bus from the CD changer so that the seat "activates."

Do you happen to know which two of these cables are connected to the CD changer connection cable? I would be very grateful.

Hi,

You can find the wiring diagram for the car on Erwin (siehe Fehlerdatenbank). Or let's take a look at which two arteries are twisted together.

Sure, here's the translation:

"LG" translates to "Best regards" or "Sincerely" in English.
