Bently Manual

[Jester B]

Does anybody have a copy of the repair manual for the MK IV Golf?

My driver's side seat heater has stopped working and I'm wondering if the manual covers removing the seat and replacing the heating elements (oh, and does it help troubleshoot to see if it's just the switch?)?

Before I lay down the $$ to buy one myself, I'd like to have an idea if my immediate needs will be met.

Thx.

Re: Bently Manual

There isn't any troubleshooting for the heater in the manual (quick look), but you could try checking for power at the connector for the element by pulling the plug and checking with a voltmeter. The plug appears to be on the front right side of the seat on the bottom, behind the plastic trim around the seat.

There are 2 plugs on the wiring harness. The end one is for the airbag. DO NOT unplug this. There are a bunch of warnings to insert a special plug in the seat when the it is removed.

Another check would be to pull the switch and make sure it is getting power.

heater is part of the seatcover, you will need to order new heated seat covers
