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 air filter; or 4) deterioration of fan motor performance. If this occurs, the thermistor operates excessively, which may cause the seat to be unable to heat up or cool down properly.
- INSPECT AIR SEAT OPERATION
- When the seat heater switch is turned ON, check that the seat heater and blower fan 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 fan operation continues.
HINT:
Based on the cabin temperature, seat temperature, etc., the seat heater operation time varies.
