Re: Driver heated seat not working

I have a similar problem with my passenger seat. Heats for few seconds then stops. Drivers side is fine. Is there a relay for thermal protection on that seat? I was told there was module that did both seats under drivers seat. I'm not that bothered but wife is getting annoyed lol

Never thought to check other lights. I thought I saw something about ambiance lights when I went through old gateway. I did have fuse box out during memory seat install so might be fuse.

I'm just starting to look at a replacement for my b6 sport. I must be a suckered for pain but I'm toying with a b7 wagon. My wife's citigo has start stop and I love it. Are the b7 tdi 140 fitted with it? They all seem to have bluemotion but not start stop. Any help welcome.
