Do you feel your seat heaters working? 200

posted by  someone claiming to be Sargent on  Wed Jan 21 10:14 CST 2004 [RELATED]

Fred, I think that the thermostat in your car is the same in mine (84 760) I had this same problem and my dad and I ended up bypassing the thermostat. The problem seemed to be that the thermostat did work but, it was shuting off before I could feel the heat. In addition once the thermostat clicked off it had to drop back down to 30-40 degrees before it would click closed. If you would like the seats to get hot, I would suggest saving money and just splicing the two wires togeather that lead to the thermostat. BUT... Make sure that you tell your wife that she needs to remember to turn it off manually or it will get hot enough to burn the seat.
