You have the let the dealer do the steps when it comes to warranty repairs. What harm is it letting them replace your radio? Less intrusive and easier than replacing your seats.
Yea it’s covered under warranty but my time isn’t free
Considering the radio electronics are what sends the signal to turn the heated seats on/off it would be a good place to start.
They still work on high and low I don’t understand why the radio is causing medium setting to not work you would think the heated seats wouldn’t work at all if it’s the radio
Here is some reading. This explains the system. Replacing the radio makes no sense to me.
Did you read the description? It says the radio is what sends the signal.
Where does the radio send a signal to? What if the hard buttons on the center stack are pushed? I am assuming regardless of what switch(radio and ics) is pushed it only works on the two settings.
When either of the heated seat switches are pressed, a switch status message is sent to the ICS and radio over the CAN
I read the exact same thing. Does the heated seats work correctly from the ICS switches and not correctly from the radio? I assumed the heated seats don't have medium setting regardless of what switch is used(I have admitted that).
Yes, but the medium level signal may not be getting sent.
Correct, the bus message may be missing. We don't know
After thinking about this, my thoughts are on an 8.4" radio. If it is a 12" radio it doesn't have the ICS heated seat switches. The radio is seeing an input from the switch, it may not be sending the correct message for the medium setting.
It’s a 12” dealership confirms it’s the radio
Is it fixed?
I explained above why it could be the radio.
My radio caused my power running boards to not work before.
