Can someone help me by offering a suggestion how to determine why the passenger side seat warmer will not turn on for a 2009 Tahoe? The light inside the door where you press to activate it does not lite up.

Does the "back" button still work? My drivers side "seat bottom" quit working and I removed the door panel and on the switch itself the button was pushed in too far. Removed and reset button and it is now working.

A Tech2 can solve the mystery in just a few minutes usually. Do you have access to one?

Often over time the contacts in the heating element break and I have read where people fixed them by soldering the broken connections. Could be any number of things like Jim's experience.

I know I keep harping on it, yes, it can diagnose just about everything. The Tech2 and the online or pdf manuals can solve most of the problems people have with these trucks. Many spend thousands on wheels or accessories, they can drop a few hundred on a scan tool that will save them precious time and pay for itself in no time.

Every GM auto enthusiast should have one, even the not so technical blokes so they don't get ripped off by thieves with wrenches. It should be like Roy Rogers and Trigger or Batman and Robin, or John Wayne and Westerns.
