My driver's side heated seat just quit.
I tried swapping in the controller from the passenger side, but the seat still does not heat up. I've also checked that there is power coming in and out of the controller, and that the power arrives at the plug under the seat (thank heaven I didn't set off the airbag somehow while tinkering around).
Any other suggestions?
Does anyone know what wires go to/from the element? I assume that if the resistance is infinite then the element is buggered.
ps. The dealer estimates $400 to replace the element.....it only cost $205 to get both heated seats as an option when buying the car.
