Thinking back to winter, I thought mine only came on when the heater's were on...maybe your passenger heated seat is on.

chill_dog is correct.

Press both buttons, first HI, then LO, then middle. Light should be on when in HI and LO, and off when the switch is in the middle position.

i had the same problem...

dealer replaced it under warranty...

it doesn't matter whether the heated-seats are on or off...those lights should be on if your headlights are on...

And you're right too. I was thinking of the orange lights that show when the heater is on. If the backlit (should have caught this) light is not on, then it is defective.

Sure, the warranty is good at any Acura dealer in the 50 United States (if you bought the US model), or anywhere in Canada for our northern friends.
