When the seat heater switch of the front seat heater switch (refreshing seat switch) is operated, the air conditioning amplifier assembly receives a signal and operates the front seat heater.
If the auxiliary battery voltage becomes low, auxiliary battery load control will operate in order to ensure sufficient power is supplied to the power steering system. In this case, the seat heater system may not operate.
Inspect the fuses for circuits related to this system before performing the following procedure.
