In cabin squeel noise. 05. When using heat on high only. Plus heated seat question

1) I get a kinda low squeel noise from inside the cabin ONLY after about 10 mintues having the HEAT on a medium to high fan setting. It sounds like its more central rather than just behind the glove box area. Doesn't do it with AC though. Weird? Could this still be the blower motor (perhaps needs lubrication?) I am also replacing the cabin air filter soon. I suppose they are in the same spot just about?

2) Heated seats both passenger and driver only work on High it seems. Anyone know anything about this? Fuses are all fine. Also I don't know if this is a 6th gen thing or not but only the bottom (butt) part of the seat gets warm. As opposed to my 4th gen which the back would also warm up. Which is more important to me lol. Problem with the seat?

I can't find a tutorial for 6th gen on blower motor replacement on here or on Youtube. Anyone have a vid?

Thanks!

I think the squeal is probably the blower motor, but I don't know why it would only make noise when using heat.

The 6th gen heated seats do have a back warmer pad just like the previous gens. If the butt warmer part works only on the high setting, this means that the heating pad for the back is either disconnected or burned out.

See if you can find the wires going between the seat cushion and the seat back and check that the connector is locked together and that the wires are not cut/damaged.
