Default Re: Heated Seats

I changed the seats in my car, went for the Cedar color units ! Love that color combo . . . .however, I did notice that the bottom cushion on the drivers side does not heat up !! Decided to check on my original seats . . . took the ohm-meter out and measured at the connector - sure enough, on the drivers side, the seat back elements are ok, but the seat bottom was open circuit !!! I checked on the pass. side seat, and both were good ! These are the original seats that came with the car, and only have 12k km on the car (that's 7200 miles!!!) . . . not sure of the other seats, but only the drivers side seat bottom is gone. Should be relatively easy fix, but need to see the part first !!!

Seeing how I was up at my friendly dealership for some parts (oil filters for the Crossfire), I asked about a seat heat element repair kit . . . sure enough there is one listed. Have ordered it and will see how tough it will be to install . . . might have to let the dealership weanies replace it . . .but first want to see if I can !

Will post more, with pics once I get it figured out . . .

Cheers
