I bought an '05 LE about 2 months ago. I tried the heated seats. I'm only getting heat from the back of the seat. Is that correct. I can't imagine it is. Has anyone had this problem. I read in one of the threads on here that the heated seats are connected to the heater itself. Is that correct? I've had heated seats before and they heated on the bottom and back.
My 05 KC does the same thing. It only heats the back. As I am still under warranty, I'm gonna have it checked out soon.

The seats should head both on the bottom and on the back. There is something wrong there. You should take it in to a dealer to look at it before you have a bigger issue.
Might be a dumb question, but you are flipping the switch in the right direction, right? Mine only heats the back if I put them on low (rocked back to me). When I rock the switch forward, it heats the butt too.

I'm gonna try this out more and see. I've only tried it a couple times. I think I had it on high and it was only heating the back. Thanks for everyones advise.
I looked in the owner's manual and it doesn't say anything about the position of the switch controlling where the heat goes. According to our service manual, there are coils in the butt part of the seats that should get warm.

Yes... The front/back switching of the switch has nothing to do with where the heat is, just the intensity of it. You should feel heat in BOTH the seat and the back in either position, obviously just more heat on the HIGH setting. For those who feel otherwise, maybe your butt sensors are malfunctioning... I recommend a good sauna and massage (I'm NOT offering, BTW!!!!) to see if it helps...
They're definately not working on the butt part. Niether side. So, I'm thinking it has to be something that would cause both not to work. The back part works on both driver and passenger. It's not under warranty to I'll have to try and figure it out on my own.
Hmm, that is weird. On low, only the back portions feels like it heats up on mine. Only in high can I feel the bottom cushion warming. Could be my @$$ is out of line though... wait, hmmmmm.....

I have an 04 LE CC with heated seats. My drivers side has gone out completely, the passenger side works fine. I checked the fuse and it only uses one fuse for both seats? Sooo If any one knows anything about this please post up!
Thanks Josh
