Heated and cooled seats stoped working.

[Bruceer1]

Hi All-

 

The heated and cooled functions for the driver and passenger seats have stopped working. If you push the button to turn it on, it will stay on for five seconds then shut off. This happens for both cool and heat on both seats.

 

I checked both fuses for "heated seats" in the manual but they were good.

 

Has anyone else experienced this issue? I have an 07' MKX

 

Thanks

H Bruceer. :D It could be various things. Bad switch, bad connections/connectors, bad wiring, shorts in the accessory system, etc etc. Your MKX is still under Warranty (unless you have an abnormal amount of miles on it). Take it to the Dealer for service so it can be properly diagnosed and repaired.

 

Even if you had found a blown fuse, you would still need to take it in for service to have the cause of the blown fuse diagnosed and repaired. Replacing the blown fuse would not fix the underlying problem.

 

Let us know what the Dealer finds out.

 

Good luck. :beerchug:

I have exactly the same problem - seat indicator lights (either Heat or Cool) stay on for five seconds, then turn off. Doesn't look like a fuse, also (from previous research here) it appears that burned out elements would turn the lights off immediately. Any insights?

Thanks
