Default Heated seat retrofit problem g344 01855

So i bought new seats for my d3. I previously had no heating in seats so i bought ones with heating. I connected everything like they are ment to. But now i get errors g344 and g345. It tells me that both seats temperature sensors are short to plus. Does anyone know what wires are these. And what i have done wrong here.

Im wondering that what cords should there be going between hvac and seats. Since only cords that inadded was one cord each seat. Going from middle of the grey connector to the back of hvac system. Same on other side. And from the middle cord hoes to fuse box. I add photos to clarify

Retrofitting heated seats is not plug and play. There is a lot of wiring work required.
You better look into ELSA (or download the 'Current Flow Diagram' pdf from Audi Erwin Online - you need a paid subscription for that).

I can see in your pictures that you have a single connector. It's definitely more than one (except for the yellow airbag connector). If it helps, I can give you some pictures with the connectors on my seats.

Of course i also added rhe brown connector. Which replaced my old red connector. Had to add one steel fyse for brown connector also. The pictures i showed over there were just the cables that came from hvac to seats. Those wasnt all the cables i fitted

You need to show everything that you have fitted in the seats
