well i have a 2000 GLE and my heated seat on the drivers side doesnt work.
the back part works but not the butt and the light is also out on teh switch.
Does anyone have any ideas that i can try to get this working. it just snowed this week so its cold in the morning

 

Here is one solution, get cloth seats.

 

Wow, I wish my butt was cold! Just kidding! Not much use for heated seats here in Hawaii. Can you believe it's December already and still 80+ degrees outside?!

 

I'm glad I'm not there.

 

dead fuse?

 

DROP DEAD!! I AM IN NY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

damn its like 24 here i like hte winter though

I dont think so cuz the passenger and the drivers back warmer work

 

Oh yeah, and did I forget to mention that there's still hot chicks in bikini's walking around at the beach! Shipping parts here to Hawaii sucks, but I guess bikini girls in winter time makes up for that.

 

can i move in with you??

girls in bikini's hmmm

 

thank god i dont live in hawaii, i love the sight of ice on my windsheild at 7AM. not seeing the sun all day kicks *** too. the kicker, i must say, is practically getting frostbite changing my oil.

-gotta get out of the midwest

 

i cant believe my trad turned in to chicks in bikinis haha can anyone help me? Also i just noticed that my power seat works except for the up and down motion??? i dunno?

 

We should ban you, god almighty we should ban you.

 

Sorry Twillin, didn't mean to to get OT. I don't have heated seats in my Max, so I can't really help too much. But if the psgr seat and backrest work, but only the backrest works on the driver's side, I would take an ohm meter and meter the heater in the driver's seat cushion. If there's juice( 12V) at the heater, then you know that either the heater is dead, or something's up in there. If there's no juice going into the heater, then you'd probably have to trace the wires back........oh, gotta go, there goes another bikini girl. Just kidding! If you try it and just can't figure it out, you may have to check an electrical repair shop. Good Luck!

 

ill try that thanks fro the help anyone else?

 

Space heater under the seat with a throttle activated switch...

 

I never undestood why people care about heated seats. That's the last part of your body that should be cold. As long as my hands are warm, the rest of me is too.

 

Im not in to hemroids

 

Huh?

(10 char)

 

I agree.

Besides: why do you even own a car there? I thought you guys surfed to work! The rest of us over here on the mainland have to rely on the Swimsuit issue to get us through till June!

 

Yesterday morning on the way to work my dash read 3, yeah a whole 3 degrees, this morning was a bit of a heat wave at 7 degrees. . . And this afternoon has been a balmy 27 degrees.

 

yea yesterday was freezing that sounds about right

 

Believe it or not, I actually do wish I lived in freezing cold weather. I guess since I've only been in snow for maybe 2-3 weeks total in my lifetime, it's something new and different. I'm planning a skiing trip with my family for next year, but until then, I'll just have to chill out in my grass shack and surf all day! LOL! JK!

 

i say again drop dead lol

 

twillin:

would you please email or post a reply on here if you found out what was casusing the 'cold butt' situation to happen.

i have the same problem, but my seat can move perfectly fine. i live in toronto, can surely use the butt warmer !

cheers,
hank

 

i need to get rims n sum subsss

 

????????????????????????????????????????????

 

if both the light and the lower part are not working, it might be the switch. swap the switch for the passanger side with the driver side and see if it works.

 

Even if the back warmer works? the switch has been out since i gto the car and it worked fine then? How uch is a new switch?

 

twillin....If you find out what the fix is please do let me know. I am having the same problem!


Thanks,

 

I'm sorry your post turned into a tard fest, I would go with the suggestion to use a multimeter, always an easy way to eliminate circuit problems.

 

No prob man maybe ill check it out this weekend. Any one else have the problem and fix it?
