Heated seats won't turn off
 
I have a 2014 brz limited and the heated seat on my drivers side won't turn off. Every time I turn my car on my seats slowly get warmer til the point thay it feels like I'm burning my buns. Thank God it's winter and I don't mind as much, but even when I play around with the switches no matter what the seat stays warm. The light could be off but still gets hot. Any recommendations? Is there a way I can just turn off the heated seats, maybe like a fuse idk. Thanks

No. It's totaled.

If only there were some sort of electrical manual.

Ultramaroon 01-20-2018 08:47 PM

Shit. I can't find it.

Ultramaroon 01-20-2018 09:03 PM

It's in the owner's manual. Found it.

I'm not that savy when it comes to electronics in cars. I usually stay away but I appreciate the manual. I'll give it a go. Thank you

Do you have a copy of the manual? I'm only half yanking your chain.

I remember reading someone's thread here that showed some burned thermostat connector or something.


You'll have to get on your back. The panel in question is in front of your left knee facing downward.

Yep, we keep ol @Ultramaroon around for our light work ......;)

I'd suggest you pull the fuse TONIGHT ...... just in case ....... or you may wake up to a car with a dead battery or the car has transformed itself into toast ...... :eyebulge:

PS - there is a "fuse puller" in the big fuse box, which is under the hood ......;)

Nah. It feeds off of a switched bus. Good thought, though.
