When I put in nicer seats in a while ago the heated seats would not work. Insta showed that the SZM module wasn't getting can signal. I'm like, whatever. I'll deal with it later.

Anyway, noticed on our recent road trip that when there's a passenger in the passenger seat the heated seats work. Or even if I just put light pressure anywhere on the seat with my finger the heated seats work.

It's also vice versa. I have to be in the driver's seat because when my wife is in the passenger side and I get out, the heated seats will turn off.

So, there's something odd going on with the seat pads.

Anyone else have this issue?
