A clue as to which fuse might be useful ;)

Then its a case of pinpointing which circuit is causing it.

The whole problem with the world is that fools and fanatics are always so certain of themselves, but wiser people so full of doubts.

Well it was common to me :-)

First thing I would do would be to isolate the front seat heating. This can be done down by the electric seat adjustment. Be careful as the air bag connections are down there too...

I haven't got any pics of the connection and I've looked on the site but can't find any..
