Might be wrong but worth a looky under the seats just in case. Mine are GREAT!

It was 3 degrees in Cambridge all day. I turned on my heated seats to 3 and was boiling! Am I the only one that finds the seats to be too hot when set above 2? Undecided

Dec 2009 at 16:09 chelski...what issues are you having with the seat heaters? All the wiring is complete with the waeco kit,needing only connecting to a +12 and earth. My suggestion was using the existing wiring which is located by the multipoint connector on either side of each front seat.

Dec 2009 at 17:31 That sounds correct...Vauxhall seem to use brown as 12volt +,so that should be connected to the Red wire from the kit....strange you have an orange wire as the set I got had a black wire,which does connect to the other side which is red/black. Are you saying they work now but your battery is just flat ??

Dec 2009 at 23:11 Hello all,can I say as far as I know VX have always used the brown wire as - (negative) return to ground. Regret connection as you describe could possibly have blown fuse No14.
