Heater Mat
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2017 Ford F-150. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
If equipped with heated seats, the cushion heater mats are each equipped with a temperature sensor (thermistor) which provides feedback to the FCIM. The heater mats are serviced by installing a new backrest/cushion foam. The cushion and backrest heater mats are connected in series.
