Inherited a 2011 Tahoe LT from my father in law. The driver side heated seat button works intermittently, not sure where to start. First Chevy product so I know nothing about them.

Also curious about seat swaps. Not a big fan of the factory seats in this thing. I slide around in them. Will seats from a upgraded Tahoe bolt in? How about Yukon/Escalade?

Welcome to the forum Ben. It's probably the heating element in the seat and if so, it can be fixed. Best bet is to see if a code has been thrown in the Body Control Module, BCM. Denali and Escalade seats have different materials but seemed to be shaped the same, don't remember. Maybe it needs a new cushion underneath?

Thanks for the info, I will check for any odes. Cushions seem to be in good shape, they're comfortable just not a lot of support.

Some seats have different wiring harnesses. Just keep that in mind before you purchase. I would suggest repairing the seat. A lot cheaper!

Are you talking lumbar support or side bolsters? There’s a mech inside that likes to break if it’s mechanical lumbar
