Heated seats switch
« on: 22 February 2009, 10:50:10 »

Morning all , the switch on my side is very intermittant , sometimes comes on 1 st go sometimes you have to do it 10 times , I have no  knowledge of anything mechanical, so what do you people suggest , new switch or maybe loose wire on the back ? Have to add when it does come on it works fine . Many thanks , Dave

might just be a dodgy connenction between the switch and loom, try popping the switch out and refit see if that helps :y (pop the switch out gently with a butter knife)

you could always pop the switch open and clean the contacts inside it, watch out for the wee springs  :y
