Alright, my driver side heated seat is not working. I checked the fuse, its fine. I also noticed that the light on the switch does not work, i dont know if this is related. I have no idea where to start looking to solve this problem. Any help would be appretiated.

I dun have heated seat.......

logically if I had heated seat.

Check fuse first, if fuse ok

then

look under the seat check for wiring into the seat.....

disconnect connector and use ohmmeter / resistance meter to check heater continuity. that will tell u if heater need to be replaced

if heater ok

it is the wiring or relay..........in such case since I dun have heater u need to ask someone else

ps. (I only have the empty connector under my seat so I know its there

Maybe it just takes a while for the heater to warm up. Last winter mine could take 30 min before becoming noticably warm. Most of the time it tool 30 min, sometimes it would heat within 10 min.
