HEATED SEAT ELEMENT
Refer to the appropriate wiring information for complete circuit schematic or connector pin-out information.
The wire harness connectors (2&3) for the heating elements are located under the seat (1).
NOTE: When checking heated seat elements for continuity, be certain to move the heating element being checked. Moving the element, such as
