Repairing heated seat
« on: 15 December 2007, 15:51:36 »

Has anyone successfully managed to repair a heated front seat? the driver's side  one is not working, think it might be heater mat itself as the light above the switch works , fuse ok and any connectors I can see are all intact, I noticed that with just ignition on and then switch on passengers side the warning lights on the dash dim slightly, so that's drawing current , but when switching on the driver's side warning lights don't dim at all so I guess there's an open cicuit somewhere  , any suggestions welcome
Cheers Pete

It's not difficult to remove a seat, just make sure you've had your Shredded Wheat first though - they're heavy. ;)

To be honest AndyB, I'll probably not bother doing it , as more I think about it, 2008 will probably see the car going to a new owner as I'm getting fed up with the thing to be honest (one problem after the other) and might settle for something like a simple Ford Focus or the such like at least they can't be anymore fragile than these damn Omegas surely!!

I have to admit that I quite like driving my diseasal Astra (apart from the extra pedal ;)). The only concession to toys are the leccy windows in the front, apart from them there's bugger all to break. ;D I don't need to worry about anybody banging into it with their doors on Tesco (other super markets are available  ;)) car park. It's just a shed to use & abuse and get me to & from work. :y

I have to admit that i detest my Festa, as everything about it is poo compared to the Omega, and it costs more to run as well.

apart from the £1000 less for the kids to be insured to drive.
