Heated seats have mind of their own... Help!

[Madgrty]

This morning I noticed my 2003 GMC Yukon was eradically flickering the heated seat on and off while I was driving. The pedal adjust and memory currently aren't working either so I'm assuming it's an issue with either wiring or the control switches themselves? Has anyone else had this issue?

Also, before this issue, the drivers heated seat wouldn't turn on. You would turn it on and it would turn itself back off. I'm not sure if this has any correlation to what I'm experiencing now, but any help is appreciated! Thank you

Could be that the control module under your seat is bad. Might need to be replaced.

a friend had this problem with his 2004 tahoe. we were on a trip and the damn things would turn themselves on repeatedly. i don't think he ever figured anything out, but not sure how far into searching he got.

I'm thinking it could be a ground or the button assembly where the heated seats are. My pedals won't adjust and the memory seats don't work either (both were working previous to this issue) so I went to the local junk yard and got a replacement. Kindly enough they gave it to me for free, probably didn't feel like ringing it in. Anyways when I get around to pulling my panals off to put in my speaker/speaker pods and hushmat I'll switch it out and see if it resolves the issue. Assuming the one I got from the junkyard isn't a failed unit like mine may be.

I've have this issue as well. I have a 2004 Tahoe. I noticed it after I went through a dip too fast and shook somethings in the truck a bit. Mine is only the heated seats randomly going on and off. I've wrestled with that button many days even tried unhooking it to no avail. It's a pain in the ass in the summer but I wouldn't dare try to turn them on no matter how cold it gets. I've been fortunate the last 6 or 7 months with no problems but I know the problem isn't fixed. Still trying to figure out what triggers it.
