Heated seats
Heated seats
I've been told by the previous owner that my 340 has heated seats. But I can't find the button nor can I find it anywhere in the manual. Was he telling porkies or does it really have them? Where can I find the mysterious button?
Re: Heated seats
should be just behind the handbrake handle on the back of the centre consol,look under your seat you should see the cables

Re: Heated seats
On earlier cars there was no switch, they came on automatically below a certain temperature. But on yours there should be a button for them between the seats, as littered says ...

Bleh, I must be blind. Unless it's the ones that I thought were the switches for the back windows! I'll take a look after work

Re: Heated seats
That sounds like the ones
The diagrams on them can wear off after a while.

Re: Heated seats
They are still thermostatic though, the switches do not necessarily turn them on. The thermostats and heating elements do tend to fail after a bit of bum wear. I have overhauled mine, and fixed the lumbar support at the same time, which needed welding. All fairly straight forward.
