Seater heater not staying on, possible solution
Well, I have been having this problem where if my body shifts in my seat, the heater has been turning off. Not wanting to drive with no seat for three weeks, I ordered a new leather/seat heater, and had it taken apart today. I wish I had taken it apart first, because this is what I found:



Easy fix. Check it out if your heater fails before replacing the entire pad like me.

Those two wires broke. I thought I had gotten a good picture before fixing, but I guess I didn't. I am thinking about selling it as well, but mine is the suede/black leather combo.
