Electrical Gremlins on 2k2?

I had my tails and brake lights quit on me the other day, and it ended up being the control module. Today, the heated stearing wheel quit working. The fuse is fine, and the light comes on but no heat. Anyone else have similar issues, or did I just get lucky enough to get the car that was built on Saturday morning on overtime? I only have 600 miles on this thing, and this will be the second time into the shop.

My heated steering wheel worked for all of two days and then died. The light in the switch still comes on, and I hear the relay clicking in the glove box, but no heat.

Haven't taken it in yet to be fixed.

w/e it's all good, the heated steering wheel is just a luxury feature. I don't think a Porsche 911 Turbo comes with a heated steering wheel, just pretend it's a ultra high-performance car, and not a luxury car.....or just bring it to the dealer
