Re: Seat warmer do not work no heat what to do? 200 1987GL

Excellent advice from others on this topic. Here is some additional info:

If it is too warm for the thermostat to turn the heating elements on, a bag of frozen vegetables will cool the seat cushion niceley. Then proceed with troubleshooting.

The 240 repair manual published by Bentley describes the troubleshooting and repair proceedures (search for Bentley on amazon.com or your favorite bookseller).

My brother and I fixed his seat warmer last week. The problem was the connector had come off of the thermostat. We replaced the connector just to be safe, even though it wasn't really necessary, becuase I had one of the correct size. It is a standard quick disconnect, available at Radio Shack.
