My 99 driver's heated seat stopped working. Brought it to the dealer and was told it was the heating element that needed to be changed and total cost would be $300. Has anyone successfully done this on their own and if so, please give me instructions on how to do this so I can save $200 in labor. Thanks!

 

My neighbour did it on his 99 and he's no master mechanic. He said he just took the seat apart and pealed the foam off of the element then stuffed the new one in.

 

Thanks, I will attempt to fix this on my own.

 

Please re post when you do. Are you going to but a new element or fix old one? Our 99 drivers side is shot and i need to fix it.
Thanks

 

Going to try and put in a new one.
