Seat heater sensor
I'm cool,
But I don't want to be. I've repaired three broken wires in my seat in the
nearly two years I've had the car. On three separate occasions no less.
The last time I did it the seat was REALLY HOT even with the switch on "1"
setting. That lasted a few days. I didn't think I'd last that long. So
then it died again. I can't find any broken wires. I think I've tested it
correctly with an ohm meter. I don't remember what I got for resistance
though. It was last winter.
Now this talk of bypassing or replacing the temp sensor in the seat.
Where is it? I don't recall seeing any such thing. Is it inside the
cloth the same way the small heating element wires are?
If I bypass it, I use a what? ohm resistor. And is it smart to bypass the
sensor?
I hear the relay click when I turn it on. I've swapped relays and
switches. It is the seat.
