Heated Seats

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Oldsmobile Aurora and 2001 Oldsmobile Aurora. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

The driver and passenger heated seats are controlled by a separate heated seat switch. When the heated seat switch is toggled toward HI/LO, the heated seat high/low signal circuit of the heated seat module is momentarily grounded through the HI/LO switch contacts. In response to this signal, the heated seat module applies battery positive voltage to the seat cushion/back heater elements, setting the temperature level to high heat. The module also applies battery positive voltage through the heated seat high temperature indicator control circuit to the heated seat switch illuminating the high temperature indicator. When the heated seat switch is toggled toward HI/LO a second time, the heated seat high/low signal circuit of the heated seat module is again momentarily grounded through the HI/LO switch contacts. In response to this second signal, the heated seat module sets the temperature level to low heat and applies battery positive voltage through the heated seat low temperature indicator control circuit to the heated seat switch illuminating the low temperature indicator.

When the heated seat switch is toggled toward OFF, the heated seat off signal circuit of the heated seat module is momentarily grounded through the OFF switch contacts. In response to this signal, the heated seat module removes battery positive voltage from the seat heating elements and the appropriate temperature indicator. The heated seat module will also turn off the heated seats whenever the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.
