Operation Check
- CLEAN AIR FILTER AND PERFORM DUCT INSPECTION
- Remove the rear seatback assembly and rear seat cushion assembly.
- Check if the duct of the seat climate control controller is disconnected or cracked.
- Clean the air filter of the seat climate control controller.
HINT:
The amount of air passing through the seat climate control controller (Peltier) may decrease if one of the following occurs: 1) duct disconnection; 2) duct cracks; 3) severe clogging of the air filter; or 4) deterioration of blower performance. If any of these occurs, the thermistor operates excessively, which may cause the seat to be unable to heat up or cool down properly.
- INSPECT CLIMATE CONTROL SEAT OPERATION
- When the climate control seat switch is turned on, check that the seat heater and blower operate based on the seat temperature.
- If the seat temperature increases as a result of the seat heater operation, check that the seat heater operation stops and the blower operation continues.
HINT:
Based on the cabin temperature, seat temperature, etc., the seat heater operation time varies.
