Lumbar **** removal

2000 Ecursion Limited. How do this thing come off? I'm trying to repair my heated seat and this is holding me up. I have a 5" thick factory manual and all it says is, 'remove lumbar ****'. DUH! I've searched as well. Thanks.

Heated seats? Usually there's a burnt wire or two that connects to two heating pads together under each front seat cover, thigh and butt. You need to pull the cover and replace the burnt section of wire with a new larger piece. I don't have a good link but if you do a search for heated seats, a repair thread should come up.

How did you get the **** off? Seems like it will break before popping off...

It just pops off, you can use a small pry bar for leverage.
I just replaced my leather bottoms on 2 front seats, mine came off with a good pull.

Ok, just noticed this was from 09, I guess you figured it all out in the last 2 years.

Ha ha, yeah thanks anyway. I believe I just kept working on mine and it pulled straight off. It did seem like it was going to break though. It's stronger than you think.
