fuse location for seats.

Dammit my bolster and lumbar stopped working on both seats. Does anyone know the fuse location.
Or any other thing to look at?

Mine went out and I took it in. Turned out to be a switch. i will look up the work order for exact part.

The fuses are either in the trunk or under the steering wheel, depending on which you are after. Open the rear door (where the nav drive sits) and you should see the fuse box. There is a sheet of paper with the coding. I can look it up on WIS tonight, if you can't get anywhere.

+1 majority of the time is the actual switch itself...

i checked the 15a fuse in the trunk it was fine. Then i proceeded to removed the actual switch, I realized it was a pneumatic switch (my car doesnot have dynamic seats) could not tell if it was bad or not?
well i think the switch worked partially this afternoon because i inflated the side bolster, then i deflated them, and when i went to inflate them again it did not work. i tired passenger side also, who know how long that switch must have been bad.

Both of my seats had gone out as well and I thought fuse or relay switch that would reset, but it ended up being a switch that was diagnosed by following a short from the seat. That is all I remember.

I'll swap you out switches and take mine in for warranty again, LOL!!

I had to. i have no idea on cost.

Well called the dealership this morning before leaving home price on the part is 194 list 150 shop price. So I was pissed.

Got into the car and viola both the multi countour seats work.

Maybe it was the heat that messed up the switch.
