HEATED SEAT SYSTEM

Vehicles with the heated seat option can be visually identified by the two heated seat switches located in the center stack of the instrument panel. The heated seat system allows the driver and front seat passenger to select from two different levels of electrical seat heating (HI/LO). The heated seat system for this vehicle includes the following major components, which are described in further detail later in this section:

- Heated Seat Elements - Four heated seat elements are used per vehicle. Two heated seat elements are integral to each seat, one in the seat back and the other in the seat cushion.
- Heated Seat Module - One heated seat module is used per vehicle. The Heated Seat Module is mounted behind the right rear D-pillar trim panel. This module contains the control logic and software for the front heated seat system. The module also communicates on the CAN data bus network.
- Heated Seat Switches - Two heated seat switches are used per vehicle, one for each heated seat. Both switches are mounted in the instrument panel center stack.
- Instrument Cluster (CCN) - A Cab Compartment Node (CCN) is part of the instrument cluster on this vehicle. The CCN utilizes integrated software and information carried on the CAN data bus network. The Cab Compartment Node (CCN) serves as the link between the heated seat switches and the heated seat module.
