Question have a 2002 passat, used seat warmer last night, this morning the seat was still warm. What controls the seat warmer?
Answer There is a pair of roller switches on the dash in the center console. I haven't checked the schematic, but the seat warmer should not stay on with the ignition off. Otherwise you'd have a dead battery if you left it on. Are you sure the car wasn't sitting with the sun shining directly on the seat?
