Heated seat switches backwards...

Okay, here is a weird one. It appears that the switches on the heated seats are backwards. When the low heat light is illuminated, the seats are hotter than when

Okay, here is a weird one. It appears that the switches on the heated seats are backwards. When the low heat light is illuminated, the seats are hotter than when the switch is reversed. Has anyone else noticed this?

Might be a wiring issue with your particular car. Mine heat up low when switched to low, and are a lot warmer when switched to high.

I'll give standing on my head a try... To be honest, they aren't much different on either setting. It's been dang cold here in Kentucky and I'm just glad they work.

OP, Let us know if the problem still persists. Also, any other touring members should chime in and express if you have this problem. Maybe Nissan need to send out a TSB for certain VIN numbers.

Hrmmm... It's not that often that we need heated seats in Los Angeles, but I have noticed that sometimes wearing different thickness jeans have made it seem like the seat warmer was taking WAY longer than it usually does.

I use mine every day and they are fine. They warm much faster than my Accord did.

Does it have heated and ventilated seats? Or only heated? Dang.. I need ventilated here. Heated will do me no good at all.
