2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission Seat heater

Anyone have an answer for a blinking driver's side seat heater light. The other side is ok. The connections seem to be tight under the seat.

You've most likely got an open circuit in the seat. The blinking light is the way the computer "tells" you that there's a problem. My rig, a 2000, requires replacement of the entire cover whereas later models beginning with the 01 I think but maybe the 02 can be fixed by replacing just a slip-out/slip-in heating pad. Much less expensive. Of course, you can always get into the seat yourself with a meter and a soldering gun and likely fix the thing for the cost of your time.



Good Luck.

Yep thats what mine did! I took the seat apart and right there where the power wire is soldered to the heating element is where it was broke. I just put some more solder and put the seat back together and everything worked fine. I saved $600. 00
