mias.motos Posted February 4 Report Share Posted February 4 I have recently purchased a Lupo GTI which has the whole black leather interior including heated seats. There are dials in the middle to change the seat warmth and I have checked there are wires coming from the dials and the seat. All seems well apart from the fact there is no fuse in the heated seat spot in the bottom right, as there is for some reason, no connector behind it. I can’t figure out why this would be, is the fuse somewhere else, is the fuse box from a gti that didn’t come with heated seats? Any help would be appreciated, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObjectiveAway Posted February 6 Report Share Posted February 6 That can be checked by multimeter, find heated seat plug, measure voltage, if it is alright check if the heated seat pad is fine by measuring ohms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You just read what ever ohms you have and then check if that is not too much. The heated seats should have to 14V on full power. The plug connected or not connected dont change anything.
