Went out to start my car this morning......switched on the drivers heated seat and the damn thing is now working. That is pretty strange. I did nothing to it since our last conversation. Was there possibly some sort of delay that was necessary for the module to learn that the elements were now repaired??

I am not crazy, but the seat is working and it worked so far for a couple of hours this morning....looks like I am ok for now.

Forgot to say thank you for everyone'* help on this issue.

Your warm bottom is all the thanks we need. (wow, that doesn't sound good if you haven't read the complete thread to this point)

how are you checking for resistance which connectors under seat is it please help i dont know which wires to test for seat elements thanks

I understand your frustration, but I just repaired mine (2 burned out elements towards the rear of the seat (not in the backrest). I used the pictures and information from: ROADRUNNER and 300SFLYER in this forum to track down and re-solder the disconnected element wires.

So I am writing to say thanks to them and help steer others with this dilema to seek out their advice and the pictures that clearly indicate where a "burn" spot can occur and how to spot them. It took me about 2 hours to peel back the butt cusion (without taking out the seat) track the wires down through the putty they use to keep the elements in place and find/repair the 2 very fine element wires back on. Presto, it worked. I did not need to mess around with ohms and readings as the brn spot(*) point to the area. As they said, normally in the seat not the back. Hope that helps.
