Thanks for the ideas. Guess I wasn't clear, this is the rear passenger
seat (right most) in a 5K Wagon (Avant).
The idea of a stuck heater sounds good, but there is none for the rear
seat, at least that I have ever found. Where would the controls for the
rear pass seat be? Also when I pulled the cushion to look underneath
did not see any connection that would likely be for a heater. Could the
rear seat have a heater that is somehow not getting juice? Seems
unlikely but hey...
Thought of the Bat too, but I saw no signs of sparking or electrical
contact near the battery posts, and the bat and all it's connections
were cool while the seat was warm.
I think the next step here is to localize the heat. If I can determin
the location, then perhaps I can take a guess as to which wires should
be unplugged and move on from there...
No reports of a seat belt switch shorting into flames???
