Heated Seat Module - 2ND Row Seats: Description
The 2nd row seat heated seat module (Fig 1) is located in the rear seat center console, where it is secured by two retaining fasteners. The heated seat module has a single electrical connector receptacle that connects all of the inputs and outputs through the seat and body wire harnesses.
The heated seat module is an electronic microprocessor controlled device designed and programmed to use inputs from the battery, the two heated seat switches and the two heated seat sensors to operate and control the 2nd row seat heated seat system. The module is also designed to provide outputs to the heated seat elements in both 2nd row seats and the two heated seat indicator lamp Light-Emitting Diodes (LEDs) in each 2nd row heated seat switch. The heated seat module is able to perform some self-diagnosis of certain heated seat system faults and provide feedback of that diagnosis through the heated seat switch indicator lamps.
The heated seat module cannot, be repaired. If the heated seat module is damaged or faulty, the entire module must be replaced.
