Hi,

My passenger side heated seat works but not the driver's side. THe light does not come on when the switch is activated. Does this mean a fuse could be blown? Where is the fuse?

Tina,
It's fuse #26, a 25 amp one. But it is the same fuse for both seats and the power mirrors, so that is not your problem. The switch has gone bad. Remove both switches, they pop straight up, and switch sides... you should get a hot butt. When replacing switches, see if the new 1997 type fit. They last longer and have a replaceable bulb inside. When the light goes out, no power goes to the seat heater.
