Figure 1 HEATED SEAT SWITCH LOCATIONS






Vehicles with the heated seat option can be visually identified by the two separate heated seat switches located in the instrument panel center stack, just above the radio (Figure 1). The heated seat system allows the front seat driver and passenger to select from two different levels of supplemental electrical seat heating (HI/LO), or no seat heating to suit their individual comfort requirements. The heated seat system for this vehicle includes the following major components:

- Heated Seat Elements - Four heated seat elements are used per vehicle, two for each front seat. One heated seat element is integral to each front seat trim cover, one in the seat back and one in the seat bottom (cushion). Service replacement heating elements are available.
- Heated Seat Modules - Two heated seat modules are used per vehicle. One module is mounted to each of the seat cushion pans, located under the forward edge of each front seat.
- Heated Seat Sensors - Two heated seat sensors are used per vehicle, one for each front seat. The heated seat sensors are integral to each of the heated seat bottoms (cushions).
- Heated Seat Switch - Two heated seat switches are used per vehicle, one for the driver and one for the passenger side front seats. The switches are mounted in the instrument panel center stack.

Hard wired circuitry connects the heated seat system components to each other through the electrical system of the vehicle. These circuits may be connected to each other, to the vehicle electrical system and to the heated seat system components through the use of a combination of soldered splices and splice block connectors. Refer to the appropriate wiring information for complete circuit schematic or connector pin-out information.
