Drivers Heated seat turning off

[tucpal]

still happening to me Kevin also
i have been told that the wires that run to the lower heated seat pad are to short
and will pull out or brake over time

i spoke to a tec at lookers and i have been told this is a common fault across the range
he told me it will be the wire from the heater pad it will be broken or burnt out as they were all to short
the fix replace heater pad and check there is sufficient loose wire to the connector
so bugger that i have no idea how to and nor do i want to take the seat covers off but it look like i will have to change the pad

here is a pic of a pad from an insignia
the it is the wires from the pad



there is also loads of tec info here
