The left and the right heated seats system consists of
the following components:
• | A heating element in the seat cushion and in the seat back |
• | A heated seat switch located in the front door on the door trim
panel |
When the heated seat switch is pressed, the heated seat module applies
battery positive voltage to the seat. The heated seat module monitors the
seat surface temperature through a thermistor and maintains a pre-determined
temperature. When the heated seat switch is pressed once, the heated seat
module sets the seat temperature to HIGH. When the heated switch is pressed
a second time, the heated seat module sets the seat temperature to LOW.
After the third press, the heated seat module stops applying battery positive
voltage to the heating elements. The heated seat module also turns off the
heated seats whenever the ignition switch has been turned OFF.
