heated seats not working

I took the seats out. took the covers off and there is no burned sections on the wire on the seat or back. the light comes on when you turn it on. what could the problem be? 1998 expedition 5.4 Eddie Bauer

Did you check if there was power going from the switch to the grid? You should also check continuity across the grid. If a wire broke when the seat wasn't in use, and the ends were far enough apart you might not get a burn mark.
