2000 SE seat change to SSEI
 

I bought 2 leather front seats from an SSEI (2000 model). Reason: Even though mine are leather as well, the new ones have seat heaters and are full electric. My lumbers are manual. Installed fine, electrical connections won't work. What should I do?

The heaters in the seats are controlled externally by an external controller. I believe the switches are in the center console. Where the controller is, no idea.

Thanks for the reply. I have the switches and wiring for the seat heaters.just no response when trying to adjust the seat positions.

Hmmm, that part I'm not sure about. Someone should chime in soon that knows the 2000+ better than me.

best of my recollection, a new seat wiring harness has to be installed to convert from non-heated to heated seats.

I see a box underneath the seats. I'm thinking those are the seat heaters. Where can I find a wiring diagram for the seats ?

You would have to pay for it, but www.alldatadiy.com is the best source for schematics for DIY mechanics.
