I think the fuse is on the passanger side. Is the passanger side working, because I think the fuse controls both. Are the lights on when it's switched on? It could also be the coils.

you could call the factory and ask for the stock resistance of the heating pad and perform a resistance check on it, but chances are if it's not the fuse or switch the pad is blown. common problem. i need to replace mine....and my seat leather...

Yup chances are the pad has a short in it. Mine driver's side has been out for at least a year. Too lazy to rip my seat apart to change it.

If you don't have an extended warranty, then you're paying to fix it.
