Heated Seats Decide Its too Cold to Work!!

whats up everyone, happy holidays!

So out here in north jersey, temperatures are ranging from 10 - 20 degrees, and the driver heated seat stops working!!

My clk came with the cooled seat option, everything works except the driver side heated seat..


Can anyone share any insight? Thanks!!

The heat seat option work kindna like the stove. If the pilot light it out.......it won't turn on. Try spray a little gasoline onto the seat light it up with a match and see what happen..............
























































































































































































































































































































































Check the fuses first.

What's weird is the back part of my driver's seat heats up fine, but the seat bottom part (butt part) does not heat up. Still under warranty, so I'll bring it in to get fixed soon.

Fuse, loose connector? Bad switch/relay?

BTW, I know how the car feels. I was thinking it was too cold to work today as well!!!!
