Prob1.
(Shouldn't start listing them I know.)

Passenger heated seat is on (lowish I think) even when the control is at zero and the led is out.

Firstly, without upsetting anything else, how to easily kill the it's power - control module anywhere?

Secondly, given the control measures a nicely stepped resistance from disconnect, 1/2KOhm through to about 5KOhm (IIRC) and the yellow led/bulb and the backlight bulb seems right I think the switch seems good (can't swap as driver different shape) I assume there's a control pickup gone faulty - where might I find it to repair/replace?

Anyone with a similar problem now cured?

There is a simple plug & socket under the seat. Can't think why it should be on though, unless the switch is letting current through. Have you tried swapping heated seat switches?

New thread in gen help.


Agemo - switch tests okay - can't swap (shape), proved warm without!
