i have fitted calibra heated seats into my corsa.
the wireing was already there so i have fitted the switches and plugged in the seats. the switch light comes on but seats dont warm up.
im going to use a volt meter to see if power is getting to the seats tomorrow.

any ideas what the problem could be?

are there any sort of relays that need fitted too?

i cant see any broken fuses. does anyone know which fuse they run off?

i dont think its a fuse because the light still comes on on the switches.

Probably in the fuse box where all the other relays go, but I'm not entirely sure...

ive just had a look in my haynes and there are no relays for heated seats.
my haynes is only 93 to 97. and mine is the change over year.

will someone look in their 1997 onwards haynes manual in the body electrical system section to see if there is a relay for heated seats.
