Seat Heater Switch: Description and Operation
Description
DESCRIPTION
Momentary contact push button switch/modules mounted in the front face of the center console storage bin operate the heated seat system. Each heated
seat switch/module has two Light-Emitting Diode (LED) indicator lamps, which indicate the selected level (Low or High) of the seat heater. Pressing the
switch/module button initiates heat. Heat remains on until switched off or until the ignition is turned off. If switched off by the ignition, a switch/module
button must be pressed to restart heating.
The switch/modules contain the solid state electronic control and diagnostic logic circuitry for the heated seat system. If any of the heated seat elements
are inoperative or damaged one or more of the LED lamps in the switch/module for the effected seat will flash.
The LED indicator lamps in each heated seat switch/module cannot be repaired. If the LED lamps are faulty or damaged, or the switch/module is
inoperative or damaged the individual heated seat switch/module assembly must be replaced. See: Service and Repair/Heated Seat Switch - Removal for
the switch/module replacement procedure.
