I have a 2006 Z71 Tahoe. It has the front captains chairs with heated leather seats. I am having an issue with my heated seats and wanted to see if anybody else has had this problem or knows a fix. I can cut the drivers seat on and it works flawlessly. But if I cut the drivers seat on and then the passenger goes to turn theirs on it cuts the drivers seat off. So we have to both keep pressing the buttons turning each others on and off until finally after 4 or 5 presses from each side they will both stay on at the same time. Any idea whats going on?

Check the harness under your seat. It's under a cover that pops off pretty easy. You'll have to lay across the floor with your feet out the passenger side rear door and your head behind the driver's seat.
I had someone ride in the back of mine and when they put their feet forward it kinda tugged the orange and black wires out of the harness. They are the power and ground. It would overload and kill both seats when both sides tried to turn on the heaters because the connection wasn't good. The harness is in a little clip that you can pop out and get a little easier access to it. There's one under the passenger seat at the rear too I think, check them both.
