Heated Seats

HI, can anyone help a new Ulysse owner!!!! I am very pleased so far with my 1999 MPV (especially the price we payed for it) Its been very handy in the summer on camping trips!!! But now the weather will get colder I tried out the heated seats and after 10 mins I still was not getting that " have I wet myself feeling" and this happens on both seats too. It is not the fuse!! Am I missing a trick like the outside temp needs to be below -10 ???? Please help before I get a frozen bum!!!!

thanks

Hi Wadgie,
It'll probably be the actual heating element in the seat that has gone, i believe it's a fairly common problem, Mine don't work either, never had a look though as I just presumed it'd be that. I used to have a peugeot 406 that had the same problem, I think it's not a cost effective option to replace them, althouh if i'm wrong i'm sure someone will point this out, and maybe I'll do mine too!

connector under the seat should have live & earth when heated switch is switched on...if you have both then as mentioned above the element is broken/open circuit.Cant remember price but I changed one recently but I dont think it was ridicously expensive.
