DJ, You mention your "pixellated " computer. Is your computer showing dead areas? Have you tried switching off the engine when you get the message then re starting? I sometimes get a similar "O/s Rear No. Plate light " message on mine, but, if I switch off and restart it goes away. Sorry, I can't help more than that, except maybe try giving the recalcitrant headrest a thumping!! Does it make any difference if someone's sitting in the seat?

I used to get a similar message if the seat was left forward and not clicked back. Worth checking the obvious microswitch under the chair that checks for this?
