[QUOTE="KarlVP, post: 1209147, member: 16136"] I've had problems with my seats on my 03 Chebby too. Sometimes when it is cold out, the drivers window won't roll up or down, and the heated seat button for the drivers side takes some finesse to get it to work. Everything on the passenger side works great though. I took the door apart to look for problems, and there is a printed circuit board in there instead of just switches. I figured it was some sort of moisture getting in there so I cleaned it up and checked the door for any water intrusion. No dice. One day, the heated seat switch on the drivers side just stayed on. It kept cycling through the settings like I had my finger on the button constantly. After I got home, I went outside to take it apart and look for problems but it stopped doing it. I've searched a few of the GM boards but haven't gotten any useful info. And it's tough taking it to dealerships because it is an intermittent problem and they won't actually see what it is doing. Plus I don't want to pay for thier labor time to tell me they can't replicate the problem. The best I can tell you is the heater in the seat may be failing. I have seen that happen in my searches, but when the element fails, it usually just goes out and only the seat back will work. Many folks have replaced the element. It isn't hard, just very time consuming. Hope I was at least a little help. [/QUOTE]
