Aldofashow Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Heater element pad under the leather probably needs replacing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

03SSBoy Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 Same here. Its weird because as long as it stays on they actually heat up. thats why i think theres a short somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aldofashow Posted October 16, 2014 Report Share Posted October 16, 2014 (edited) Same here. Its weird because as long as it stays on they actually heat up. thats why i think theres a short somewheremine is the same but it's kinda like if you sit on it in a certain spot it will make a connection and work and if you hit a bump in the road and break that connection it will shutoff just a bad element look on eBay. http://pages.ebay.com/link/?nav=item.view&alt=web&id=221534472596 Edited October 16, 2014 by Aldofashow (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueAKSSS Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Replace the elements, you'll be happy you did when you see the old ones. Mine had burned areas where it was shorting out, also used to have the same symptoms of the seat shutting off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bowtie Posted October 17, 2014 Report Share Posted October 17, 2014 Heck, I would replace the lower foam pad at this time too! Restore the integrity of the seating surface. These heating elements are glued down to the pad too. So you will tear up some of the original foam just swapping out these heating elements....
