Default Hot butt!

Hi guys, I was driving along the road a few minutes back with my seat heater on. Smelt a faint burning smell and felt my leg burning!!

Just one spot on the base of the driver's seat had seriously overheated. It was on the right hand outside edge, and had left a small scorch mark on the seat. See pic below, just above the seat controls.


The rest of the seat, both base and back, were working as normal, just this one particular spot that got too hot. Is there a fix for this?? My current solution is to turn it off and not use it, in case I set the car on fire!! (Tried searching but all previous threads refer to the heaters not working.)

Regards, Andy.
