Dyanmic Seats stopped working

Driving into work today and felt a "deflation" in my seat. Checked the dynamic button and it appeared off so toggled on/off but nothing happening.

When I got to work, I sat on the passenger side and tried it, not turning on. Turned car on and off, no luck.

Since it is both sides, could it be a fuse? Or something worse?

Where is the fuse box and anyone have the schematic for which is for the Dynamic seats?

Thanks as always!

Happened to me a few years back. The fix was to replace the "dynamic seat module". Whatever the hell that is.

I have the Chrysler Extended Warranty so I'll be ok just paying my deductible if that's the case.

What did it run $?

So, no chance it's just a fuse huh?

Doubt it's a fuse, as many accessories share fuses, so you'd see other failures as well.

My car was under warranty when it happened, so it cost me nothing. My guess it's either this mysterious Dynamic Seat Module, or the pump, as stated above.

Either way, it sounds like you're covered under warranty.

Yup.

Mine would do the same thing too. Wouldn't work...than a few hours/days later, it would work. Dynamic Seat Module.
