NOTE:
Do not reinstall any heater mat after removal. The adhesive will not adhere correctly to the foam pad causing it to bunch up or shift out of place. A new heater mat must be installed. Failure to follow this instruction can result in seat component damage and system failure.
- Remove the seat cushion trim cover. For additional information, refer to SEAT CUSHION COVER - SECOND ROW, 40 PERCENT .
- Route the heater mat wiring harness from the seat.
- Note harness routing for correct installation.
-
NOTE: Do not use a razor knife or other sharp tool to separate the heater mat from the foam pad. Damage to the foam pad may result. Install a new foam pad if torn or burned.
Carefully peel the cushion heater mat from the foam pad and discard.
- Only a thin layer of foam should peel off with the adhesive.
- If burned or torn, remove and discard the cushion foam pad.
